[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 117802, member: 393"] Terry, I have to tell you that we have yet to find a home based consequence that impacts school & vice versa. Having said that, we've tried all the suggestions above & then some. Unless/until kt & wm are truly invested in themselves & in their education all the rewards/consequences in the world mean nothing. Our game plan all along is self esteem, trust in primary care givers & a daily home life that the tweedles can depend on. And in the end, there will be a lot to catch up in academics. And there will most likely be vocational education versus college. I'm not giving up on academics; foster mum & dad aren't giving up on academics for wm. However, the tweedles delays, their emotional age & trauma in their early childhood makes the school setting, for them, a not pleasant or positive environment. [/QUOTE]
