[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 125418, member: 3626"] I know you don't like the idea of public school for your son, but they do have a lot of resources that would not be available at a religious school and you wouldn't have to pay for them. It might be worth considering and then, maybe, you could still keep you daughter at the school. I had my daughter in a private school for first and second grade. It was a huge mistake. While they tried to help her, the teachers just didn't have the training and the school certainly did not have the resources. Public school really was much better for her even with overcrowding. As for you, you really need to find some time for you. Our kids are draining to say the least. However, we can't help them, we can't be parents to our other kids, we can't be good spouses, we can't even be decent friends if we're not taking care of ourselves. Even if it's just 15 minutes a day, find time for just you. During that time, no thinking of the kids or the house or whatever, use it for you. To sit and read or sew, to walk around the block, to enjoy a garden. Just do something for you. It really will make a world of difference. [/QUOTE]
