[QUOTE="mamaj, post: 565397, member: 15605"] Alright, I'm at my wit's end. I am the mom of a 16yo girl and 14yo boy. My son Hunter is a freshman. In 8th grade I switched him to a different school district due to bullying and other issues. Last year went ok. This year, honestly, I could commit myself or send him away. He had 3 F's at midterm last week. This week he has gotten 2 detentions for fighting (although Hunter claims he did nothing) and I don't know if he got ISS or not because they hadn't determined if him throwing a paper on the floor in chorus yesterday consituted the next step in the discipline plan or not. I'm a pretty hands-on parent. My husband (the kids' stepdad) is supportive, but not hands on. Their bio-dad says everything that happens is my fault, even though the same things happened when Hunter tried to live with them for a couple months 7 years ago. He is disrespectful, and appears lazy. I say appears because he does whatever he can to get out of whatever it is he is supposed to do. We have tried removing priveleges (even as much as not letting him get a drivers license), adding rewards, nothing seems to work. His IEP team kindly reminded me last week that ODD/CD kids are those that end up in prison. Thank you for that vote of confidence. I don't know what to do. Someone please help me. [/QUOTE]
