[QUOTE="keista, post: 465046, member: 11965"] Sorry about the drama, but it sounds about right. DD1 also started up at the one month mark. Ever since she's been scary perfect, though. Regarding the therapeutic HS. Go visit as often as you can and see how things are there on a daily basis. See, the comment about the emotionally hadnicapped and behavioral issues kids made me chuckle. In out elementary school, that's what the sped department is geared to. At least it was until son showed up. this concerned me greatly but since he was on a fast track to mainstream, it was "doable". Well, once in mainstream he was pulled out for "social skills classes" with these other kids. 5th grade rolled around and this class was causing more scheduling and regular academic miscommunication issues than it was helping with the skills, so I asked if son could drop it. The sped teacher didn't recommend it, but allowed it because son was "just not getting it". she said ALL the EH kids were much more advanced than him in basic social skills - turn taking, listening to others' interests, playing games others wanted to play etc. So, my point is not to rule it out because of a "stigma". If they have good staff, and things are handled well, it should be just fine. [/QUOTE]
