[QUOTE="Marcie Mac, post: 453689, member: 47"] Way to go thank you :) Its just absolutely amazes me the things you have to go thru with some kids just to get them thru school. I remember being besides myself when Danny reached 18 and quit-all those years of school via the justice department, alternate schools, home schooling, independent study, having tudors come in - really he never attended a regular "school" since 9th grade and worked sporatically with those "packets" they would hand out - the years "I" squeezed my fat behind in a school desk while he took various tests/turned in homework because he would wig out just sitting in a school and I had to go with him his anxiety was that high. He quit despite his knowing there was 1,500 waiting for him if he got that diploma. And then found out he couldn't get a job without it and went for the GED and like thank you, absolutely aced it. I didn't think he absorbed anything all those years and boy, was I surprised. I remember him comming into my office at work, big old grin, handing it to me (in exchange for his 1500 of course LOL) I am sooo over the moon thank you has crossed off this milestone - I well remember those dark days so many years ago and am so proud of him (and you for still having a smidge of sanity and your sense of humor in tact:) Marcie [/QUOTE]
