[QUOTE="onlyone, post: 609325, member: 17020"] My only caution is to be careful about thinking about the school counselor as a personal 'counselor' for you or your family. Sometimes those at school 'talk' to others and you can end up with your child/children being the subject of discussion- despite the privacy laws in place. Also be careful about getting into the CPS system. Once 'big brother' gets involved in your personal life, it may be hard to get them out. There are excellent school counselors, and excellent CPS workers, but as one who works in the public school system, much more 'sharing' of students personal issues goes on than one would hope. You do have a scary situation- so hard to make sure your son doesn't get blamed or targeted just because he is the male and the elder child. [/QUOTE]
