[QUOTE="'Chelle, post: 242688, member: 1161"] Thanks guys, it helps to just say it here sometimes with people who understand it all. No call from school, though I've been worried all day. He has a pretty good TA this year, so maybe she was able to get him through the day. GCV - yeah, that is my thought too, but can't get difficult child to open up about what's bugging him, other than "I HATE SCHOOL". This semester has the more "difficult" classes for him to get through, plus last semester we worked in a resource room period for him which helped a lot I think. I think English gets to be the worst, and colors his whole day for him. Last semester was the "Shakespeare" semester etc. It's easier for him since it's mostly reading the plays in class, reading & discussing the interpretations others & teacher have already made and not having to interpret himself, and give the info back in the tests. He's ok with that. This semester it's reading a book and figuring out, and conveying, the whole "meaning" etc. on his own. Struggles with that, almost unable to do it at all. Plus he's had the same English teacher now the 3rd semester in a row, maybe the school is trying to keep him with a teacher who knows difficult child and how he acts/reacts. The teacher tries, but just doesn't "get" my difficult child. His style is a bit more authoritative/dictatorial than my difficult child can appreciate LOL. I mean, tells difficult child to leave, and then is surprised/angry when he does :rolleyes: At least it's Friday, will see what I can do with him over the weekend. Maybe Saturday night when he's had time to get over the week, but before it's almost time to go back. [/QUOTE]
