[QUOTE="wakeupcall, post: 117629, member: 2287"] Ditto, Sheila. The stims for difficult child are absolutely necessary or he'd never learn a thing, but you better catch him while they are working their best. Up-down, Up-down...that's what I don't like about them, but we need a few hours a day or he would never have even learned to read. He takes the max of stims to be able to even attend classes. By evening when they are gone, he's jumping on the furniture (at TWELVE!), won't sit to eat dinner, terrorizes the dogs, etc. Arg! Michelle, I'd say your difficult child isn't learning a thing sitting in the office. The elementary "office" always afforded my difficult child with a lovely empty room with a desk along with his backpack full of work for him to do. In my estimation, he was being deprived of education.....the other students in his class weren't being "self-taught", so what was he missing from the teacher. I hear your frustration and anger....been there done that. Get out your warrior gear, you may need it. [/QUOTE]
