[QUOTE="heavenhelpme, post: 67787, member: 3987"] I know I've said it once, but I have to say it again...Thank you everyone for your advice, support, and for sharing your own stories with me. While it saddens me to know all of you are going through tough times, it makes me feel a lot better knowing so many people DO understand what I'm going through. As for an IEP...we had one set up last year..it didn't do much except excuse his absences for counseling and document that we also had him seeing the school counselor. Our entire school district is general is probably one of the worst in the state as far as assisting "special" needs kids. We are going to see how the year goes and if need be will go above our principles head to get something done...I can't go through another year of school induced torture..that I know. I'm going to start looking for a facility or dr. that can do a thorough evaluation of my difficult child, because I do feel the current counselor is overlooking a lot of things. I have to check with our Ins and see how to go about things like that....gotta love ins companies. Has anyone dealt with dr's in NM???? CookieMomster...I have to say it's almost like you're telling my life story. The extended family's interference & judgement, the time consumption, the destroyed vacations & family time, and the fear of violence towards other family members has me on the verge of losing my husband and a son. Two people I love very much. I often wonder if I'll let the guilt of "abandoning" my difficult child and my love convince me to stay too long and then something horrible will happen, and on the other hand I feel like I'll let my fear and frustration take me and my biochildren away from a family that could have survived. It's like a huge circle, just back and forth, with no apparent ending!!! Thanks again to everyone!!! [/QUOTE]
