[QUOTE="Chaosuncontained, post: 485060, member: 11016"] I *think* I would let them give the morning medications. For a few reasons. Maybe he is balking at the medications thinking he gets to stay home. Give the medications at school and he will soon realize he's going to school anyway. Maybe he knows or feels he can "con" you easier into giving in. The staff at school may "last" longer than you would. Plus (and this is my experience from working as a daycare/preschool teacher) I have found that I always have more patience with kids who are not my own. What I mean is...I could put up with a lot more from a child who wasn't mine and still have the musical tone to my voice than I could with my own. Five minutes of hanky panky from MY kids gets a stern voice and a threat of grounding. I couild last considerably longer (and still have my hair) with someone elses child. And my final reason? YOU DESERVE A BREAK! They are asking to help you, it is ovbiously taxing on you. Take the break... HUGS [/QUOTE]
