[QUOTE="laurensmyprincess, post: 191649, member: 2898"] Best I can -- does your difficult child have seizures too? Oh yes, Epilepsy can have so many other issues besides the seizures themselves. Behavior, emotional issues, memory issues, language processing, expressive language deficitss...it all goes hand in hand and can really create a cyclone of problems in the school setting. I have been at this almost 4 years with her, since she was diagnosis at 2 and I have done a tremendous amount of research, reading and talking to other parents and doctors. As the years have gone on, it is has become increasingly harder....not so much on the seizure front, but on all the other stuff. I have all kinds of info I can give the teacher, the school etc. We are working on these strategies really hard. But it will take lots of time, patience, understanding and SUPPORT. I hope they get this now and will give her an aide for a bigger part of the day to help with the socialization, behavioural and academic stuff. I do need to convey to the principal in a very diplomatic way about this teacher calling me crying. I just can't shake that. I am sure that the teacher will go to the principal now anyway, and if she is that emotional of a person, may very well end up crying with her too! There is no other class to put her into. There are only 2 Grade 1 classes in that school and the other teacher apparently is very strict, rigid and does not tolerate "antics" from children. The current teacher she has was purposely picked because they thought she would be able to handle difficult child. Right. [/QUOTE]
