[QUOTE="Wiped Out, post: 316828, member: 1631"] I get to go with difficult child tomorrow to see President Obama speak! There was a lottery for parents but that isn't why I'll be there it's because difficult child is a difficult child. They are really worried that the change in schedule will cause him a lot of anxiety tomorrow and they are worried how he will react. The usual people that work with him won't be able to do so in the same capacity they usually do. The only bad thing about it is I will need to take the day unpaid which we really can't afford but we do feel this is in difficult child's best interest. The school psychologist at difficult child's school said she thought I should be able to be a sick day since it was due to difficult child's mental health issue. Long story, short my principal did not agree. She feels it is the school's responsibility to provide for difficult child which I agree, however, this is a special occasion, once in a life time and I can see why difficult child's school wants either husband or me there. Suffice it to say this part of my day was very stressful. However, it is what it is and I am very excited that I will have the opportunity to see the President speak:) [/QUOTE]
