The answer should be yes. Not "how can I get my loved one help?"

>Juvenile Court results

>So juvenile court was interesting for M this morning. Refereed instead of judged. Three months probation. Was told that my wife and I are doing a good job of providing a supportive environment for him. The referee seemed surprised that M didn’t have an IEP. Interesting how everyone thinks he should have an IEP except the school that he attends. M was extremely nervous about court. The referee is making some referrals. Maybe now we can get some support from outside agencies for him.

On a side note, the clinic called about my other son, and want to reschedule him for Friday.

>Juvenile Court redux

>Well our meeting with the juvenile court referee got moved to this morning. Wonder what that will bring to our lives.

>Juvenile Court

>Got notice today of the pending court date for the one who attacked his teacher a few weeks ago. It has been a rough day.

He slept in, had breakfast. Then he stole pie, when confronted about it, he said that he couldn’t have thirds of his cereal. When we discovered that he threw away his cereal he denied saying anything about thirds. uuuuuughhh… I feel like I am losing my mind.

Obsessive Compulsive… oh yeah. Oppositional Defiant… oh yeah…

Such a joy. He seems unconcerned about the fact that he has to go to court at his age for assaulting a teacher. When we explained that he could get taken away from us for this behavior, he had the good grace to look surprised.

But then this could all have been avoided if the school had provided him with the aide that we and his doctors told them he needed.
