[QUOTE="DDD, post: 514292, member: 35"] I can't even imagine how difficult it must be for both of you to decompress after yet another stupid meeting. on the other hand, it sure sounds like good news if there's a chance of out of district approval for the "gentle learning" school. I'll be hoping and praying that they expedite your tour and introduction to the facility...and even more, that the school is appropriate for his best chance at positive education. by the way, I got difficult child#2 hooked up with Voc/Rehab in ninth grade if I remember correctly. Just want you to know that there were bi-annual "stupid" meetings required where he was "seen" and then asked "what do you want to do when you are thru with school?" Every six months, of course, he gave a different answer depending on what he'd seen on tv or dreamed about. Sigh! "I want to be a surgeon." WTH! "I'm going to be a priest." Each time the lady wrote it down like it was an attainable goal, LOL. BUT there have been opportunities that came from Voc/Rehab after he graduated. So my advice is don't expect much for awhile (understatement) but eventually they can provide resources. Meanwhile I'm sending another big comforting hug for your both. DDD [/QUOTE]
