[QUOTE="Andy, post: 152886, member: 5096"] "It is so hard when all the feedback I get from the school is negative, I have to fight to find positive." Do you get a chance to talk to teachers? I had a conversation with my difficult child's homeroom teacher last week regarding how he only gives me the negative stories ("no one will play with me, no one likes me, ect.") The teacher stated that was not so, that he was only telling me about the things that upset him. She then said, "And what do you hear from me? The bad things!" The other teachers have asked her to tell me EVERYTHING which definately has its good side and bad side. Their view point is that I NEED to know everything - which may be true but does get depressing at times because EVERYTHING is only the bad behavior, not the good times. I need to specifically ask both difficult child and teacher for good stories. What good happened? The mom in charge of lunch told me she had gotten after difficult child for something and another student came to his defense (and no one likes him? I think he has friends:) ) "I was going to give him a week or so before I became overly concerned. Does this sound reasonable?" When you loose a friend, it is hard to find a new one. I don't know how to handle this one unless there is a friend you can invite over for a weekend day? [/QUOTE]
