[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 490137"] First off, I am so sorry about your day with Q. I know difficult child 1 always had a hard day when we had IEP meetings even if it wasn't one he was going to. The anxiety of being there was a lot but NOT being there was worse for him so we made a plan that he wouldn't go and I would tell him everything that happened. But, the anxiety over the meeting happening at all got him "out of sync". It got to where I just didn't tell him we were having one and I made sure no school personnel did either. Is there any way you can do this with Q? For difficult child 1, knowing we were meeting about him but not knowing what was happening was just way too much for him. I don't blame you for losing your cool. Sometimes it is just soooo hard to do and I usually end up crying too. I have been where you are so many times and a human being, warrior mom or not, can only take so much. As long as we continue to feel bad about our behavior afterwards is a good sign. You're doing the best you can with the hand you've been dealt. Our difficult child's just aren't going to figure it out. We are human and humans aren't perfect. We just keep plugging away and hope it works out in the end. {{{{(((HUGS)))}}}} to you and to Q. Have him give you a hug for me and give him one from me. These meetings tend to bring out the worst in us sometimes. [/QUOTE]
