[QUOTE="Babbs, post: 303524, member: 3820"] Susiestar- part of our problem is that difficult child went to 5 schools in 5 years from starting preschool at age 2 until 2nd grade - between moving from VA to Alaska, between the Alaska school district changing placement due to boundary changes over the summer, and due to moves post separation and divorce and trying to find a permanent job for me. difficult child's therapist has basically begged SO and myself to please please please not move difficult child again until a natural transition (like to a middle school at 5th grade or junior high at 6th grade). Moving because of the baby arriving has been big on difficult child's mind and we agreed to stay in the same apartment complex (moving from a 2 bedroom to a 3 bedroom) - difficult child often brings this agreement up when he's talking to people about the baby (e.g. "my mommy's having a baby but we're going to stay in the same place!") so I know that moving to an unfamiliar school will be additional trauma ontop of the changes in the family. I'd love to change schools but I'm afraid of what that would do at this point. [/QUOTE]
