[QUOTE="rejectedmom, post: 43404, member: 2315"] I have been n your shoes re the school supplies and books. Here is how I handled it. I made up a supply box for him for each teacher and they were to keep it for him. I explained how he had gone through over a hundred dollars worth of supplies in less than a month and that I could not afford it at that rate so they either kept them for him or they did without. As for his text books, in some classes they gave me one to keep at home. In other classes that didn't have spare books someone copied the homework pages and sent them to me via email. There are usually aides and volenteers that can do this for the teacher but if not you could go in or send someone else in and ask for the work once a week. If any of the teachers balk at this solution ask for an IEP meeting bring it up there tell them what you are willing to do and have it written into the modifications. Demanding that a difficult child be more responsible is not always the best route to follow n cases such as this. -RM [/QUOTE]
