[QUOTE="brandyf, post: 84875, member: 4110"] thank you. and most of all thanks for talking in regular terms... in a perfect world i would like my children to be able to deal with whatever life hands them, after all i am preparing them for life after mom and dad...ya know? i have probably the biggest problem of all just trying to admit that my little boy has got some issues. it just s@*%s. i pulled up pediatric neuropsychologist in my area (springfield missouri) in google. there was only 1 comment, it stated from a mother that she thought they were too "medication happy". Kind of scares me. But I supose i would have the final say so and would be the one dosing it out.. after our first evaluation/meetings with our old psychiatric when she set us up on the behavior plan, which was only done at home because it was during the summer he really had a rapid 100% turn around and continued throughout his entire kindergarten year. he only had 1 incident which was the first week fo school. it was like he had just been begging for disciplin that made since, was calm and not so angry and sporadic like we had been in the past. this morning, our principal informed me that his teacher had lost one of her parents over the weekend and thats why she wasnt there on monday. (andrew was finishing out his suspension so he wasnt there) but that he was sure that was playing a part in everything because she is emotionally upset.(??????) i feel for her, truley, and have no idea what she is doing at school. after school when i picked the kids up today, he was so happy for a change. he said he had stayed on green all day (they do the green, yellow, pink, red thing in his class) and that she had sent a note home (happy gram). I immediately made a huge fus of it, took them up to the store, bought him something special...rushed home to brag to his dad, called granny, dad took him to toys r us ....the whole 9 yards. i pray this is making a difference. he knew about the death of her family member. he has remorse. its so sincere. i wonder if he really was good, or if she was told about my meeting with the principal and was told to do so. i am on the PTA at our school, i have made their yearbooks 2 years in a row, for free. i volenteer at every event including our little library which is an every day event. i am not griping about it, this is what i love. this is why i work from home. i feel like the staff looks at me like i am the problem, or i am a failure of a parent. do you guys ever get this? i have been known to over think everything...but i am just wondering should i drop all of it? do they think i should focus more on my son? i shouldnt care i guess, but its just killing me. i care, way too much maybe. after all the principal didnt think he was out of control or needing anything. he just kept saying "keep your head up, he will turn around, we arent giving up on him".... wish there was a manual about this stuff.
