[QUOTE="Lordofmylife05, post: 255277, member: 7032"] Thank you for the ideas, Andy! His birthday is coming up in May so perhaps I will do as you suggested. I did have one mom come up to me (I think her son and my son have the same issues) and offered to bring my son to her house for dinner. I really need to take her up on that offer. It is so hard for him to make friends...It makes my heart break for him :( He's a really good, compassionate kid...he has trouble with impulse control and also with never being able to admit when he can't do something or when he's wrong. That really rubs the other kids the wrong way. Plus, I just found out this week that the 5th grade field trip he has been planning on attending all year, well, the teacher told me that he will not be able to participate in the week long event :( She said that when they went to a field trip a couple of times, he refuses to listen to the chaperones. So he can go for the first two days, but the last three days -- he'll have to have ME as a chaperone AND I would have to pay an additional $175 on top of the $350 I have to pay for my son to go. :( She refuses to let him prove himself over the next two months. He's been in counseling, we are working and making progress...but I feel so badly for him. :( [/QUOTE]
