Mom? What's a difficult child?
Good thoughts if you have them! husband was out of town for a week and I had to write up my list of demands. LOL With a computer that was acting up and kids as well.
Luckily our therapist was e-mailing back and forth with advice. She is coming as our Doctor and advocate.
I think things will go smoothly.
The School has not had many if any, young BiPolar (BP) kids, but they are very helpful.
From what I have learned and am learning there are so many special needs kids in the school and entering.
The school has about 500 kids and a lot of special needs. There are at least 3 in K's class that I know for sure.
I still can't get a read on K's Teacher, she told me K had been crying in class over some corrections. She tried to act like it was not big deal. I made it clear it was a big deal and I needed to know. I stated that even if other kids cry in class, I need to know because K cycles, is on medications and on days when she comes home and is banging her head against the wall or is severely depressed etc... this could be the reason or one of the reasons. I think she cares but is learning as she goes.
I had asked if she could just put a little note in her pack back, she kind of blew me off. But this is going in her IEP anyway.
Heck if I am spending all this time just getting my kid to school I expect to know why she is upset after school.
So does her therapist so she said we will get this. K's last teacher said she will come and ask for it also if we need any help...
Oh and K announced to her class Tuesday that she takes medications to help with her emotions. Because they go up and down like and engine!
Well we are trying to proactive and educate people. I guess we are starting now.
I will keep you posted. I am nervous but calm.
Oh, I started baking again for the staff meetings
, got a huge kudos over the school loudspeaker I guess from the principal! Heck i will do whatever, I am not above it! LOL
