We've done that! T...Oh, crazy with a side of tears. We've done that! The folder gets stickered. (You know, somewhere in your kiddo's folder there is one for you and it has a sticker on it so anyone who lls it only has to look at the sticker to either know what they're in for, or to make a judgment.)<BR/><BR/>Sometimes tears and screaming are called for, I think. An awful lot is expected of moms of special needs kids, not the least of which is an impossible saintliness. Who can hold on to that in the face of negativity from people who are supposed to help? <BR/><BR/>I've been through the different from others his age thing, too. It hurts so much! It's so unfair. I just try to remember that my son is very much like himself and as himself is a smashing success, and so is yours (and jennyalice's and Squid's...)DivaLeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09777712092222499616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13259217.post-15161994951949802352007-11-09T18:00:00.000-08:002007-11-09T18:00:00.000-08:00I am so, so, so sorry. I was just re-reading your ...I am so, so, so sorry. I was just re-reading your CISWY story and thinking what a funny wonderful person you are; but even funny wonderful people have their limits and it was probably good for that awful teacher to see you reach yours. And I am so glad that you were able to go to jennyalice's and hide when you needed to.<BR/><BR/>That teacher sounds like a useless fucking bitch. Can you switch AJ to another teacher? <BR/><BR/>Please tell AJ that we love him and wish him the happiest belated birthday ever.Shannon Des Roches Rosahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18057806553670980068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13259217.post-25591096285560596692007-11-08T20:35:00.000-08:002007-11-08T20:35:00.000-08:00Oh Judy, I am so sorry you had to go through this....Oh Judy, I am so sorry you had to go through this. I'm sure the teacher fully deserved whatever you dished out, but I'm sure it wasn't fun delivering it... nor dealing with it after.<BR/><BR/>Hope the next day went ok. I'm out of reach tomorrow (friday), but feel free to call and vent Saturday. knowing you, whatever was said and done must have been quite evil to provoke you like this. perhaps we need some sort of protection amulet for you in future dealings with this woman. kind of like a cross against vampires...<BR/><BR/>mbmbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15506232089082821704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13259217.post-8752468373219396392007-11-08T06:56:00.000-08:002007-11-08T06:56:00.000-08:00i love you so much my dear friend. I hope today go...i love you so much my dear friend. I hope today goes okay. There was not much of a relationship with that teacher before the "crazy lady" episode as I am wont to call it. Remember the words you said were true..it's just possible that there was a better way to deliver them. It is possible that this was the only way you were going to be heard.<BR/><BR/>Things will smooth out again. My great-grandmother, Blanch Alice, quoting King Solomon, used to say "This too shall pass." I heard it a lot growing up. <BR/><BR/>You've never done this before Sage. We are all learning. You are doing great considering we have no textbooks or directions.<BR/><BR/>Let me know if I can help with anything.<BR/><BR/>I bought a new box of peppermint tea, should there be a follow-up meeting :)Jen Myershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17178547646207135454noreply@blogger.com
