[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 480530, member: 2211"] [COLOR=#008080][SIZE=2]I also agree with TM - exactly what I was thinking as I read your post. Yes, you feel bad, but he was so rude and disrespectful to you and of your feelings. Something that was difficult for me to hear about my child at around age 9 was that she could possibly be using her known diagnosis/disability as a means of manipulating me. Have a discussion. You can apologize for your delivery, but not the message...I've done that a few times. I don't like yelling, but sometimes what comes out in anger is exactly what they need to hear. And he's 9, he's not 4. Old enough to understand that A) he is not the center of the world and that all his behavioral issues don't preclude him from being yelled at occasionally, and B) Mom's have feelings too! Wait till you're both home and can talk about it. I wouldn't call the school as there is a very good chance he's moved on. Big hugs~[/SIZE][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
