Changes

We moved Crew back to the Deaf School today! The past two months have been a roller coaster. We pulled Crew from his class after hearing reports of neglect. We've complained to the principal and also the director of Special Education and the sad thing is I doubt any changes will be made. It is so unfortunate that this teacher feels she is cut out for Special Education because she really should have nothing to do with children.

So Monday we had his IEP and decided to place him at USD again this year. I met the teacher and aide today and felt so grateful for the happy atmosphere there. It was short day today. I will drive him again tomorrow while they finalize transportation plans then he will be bussed.

Halloween is upon us! The pirate costume wasn't the plan for Crew but I accidentally grabbed the wrong size while shopping for H. Now that we have it I am pleased! Doesn't he make a cute pirate? Ahoy, there matey!

Sucky sucky SUCK

My child is severely delayed. SUCKS!

My child isn't making progress. SUCKS!

I just moved my child school districts in hopes of helping him progress. New teacher SUCKS!

I don't think I can trust my instincts. I SUCK!

Crew has not brought home one thing from his class this year. Besides Resource, I haven't seen one stinkin' paper. No art project, no crafts, no coloring cutting or pasting. Crew has not played on the playground equipment at school even ONCE! The teacher has actually parked him in the hall for screaming (which he does when he needs attention or when he is excited).

Not only is he non-verbal but I get rewarded with a handful of hair, a slap in the face, teeth in my flesh....

Oh yeah, and a million kisses when the day is done and again at the start:) I don't know who is more confused... MOM or CHILD.
