[QUOTE="1 Day At a Time, post: 75422, member: 3704"] Kjs, How are things going for you today? I'm hoping that it is a much better day for you all. I , for one, have lost it with difficult child more times than I would ever care to remember. In spite of myself, I keep/expecting, wanting him to be more like easy child. My difficult child is highly anxious, quirky, and so worried about drawing attention to himself. He only wants his 504 plan when it helps keep him out of trouble - otherwise he wants to pretend it doesn't exist. Seeing a pattern here? He and I are both heavily into denial - it's just so seductive... Because of his anxiety and quirkiness we have don't have him in the challenging classes. He's bright enough but he literally just can't do it on a day to day basis. Since we've given that all up our life at home is oh, so much better. Maybe this could help you all as well. I'm sure there are those who think we're letting him slack or we are spoiling him, or not preparing him for the real world. But we just have to do what we know is truly best for him. You both are in my thoughts and prayers. Many, many hugs for you both!!! [/QUOTE]
