It's exam week for gfgd school....haven't a clue if she is writing any/none of them and really don't care at this point...I've actually been able to go for a couple hours at a time now not wondering/thinking/worrying about her and what she is doing/getting into/etc...


Until the blasted phone rings...it's her business class teacher calling to let me know she has failed the exam with a 13% mark, not handed in any assignments/seatwork/etc and they want me to talk with her...


I told him "are you aware she no longer lives at home, hasn't since Sept and that I no longer am involved in her care/academic ability/etc?"  to which he replied yes he knew but thought I could do something.


I said"what exactly is it you want me to do?  Call the home so she can verbally abuse me, have her worker tell me I am an unwanted intrusion into her life and stress for a week now?"...he answered that I should, as a loving caring mother, want to help my daughter obtain her high school diploma...


I replied"I am a loving caring mother, who has bent over backwards.been shafted, told to f off, been screamed at and told to die.  I have done all the fighting for her that I can possibly do.  It is up to her to figure it out...not me."...he said he would pass on to the vp that I was refusing to help.


I hung up....I mean, what exactly am I supposed to do?  She's made her bed now it's up to her to untangle the sheets and straighten things out, not me....


I did call the home however and leave a message with her primary care who really didn't seem all that surprised that she lost all her credits...and was very snotty about me calling....


Geez :hammer: I was in a good spot...now I'm stressed, my kids are fighting again and the baby is whiny...all because I'm stressed again and they pick up on that....
