    Ha, I hope it didn't feel like a kick! I know it's easy to get stuck in the paralysis-via-analysis thing.

    I hope school is responsive to your concerns! FWIW, my DS is really a lot better this year than last and my hunch it's because he's adjusted a little more to the hormonal issues--because I can't think what else has changed, much. He was kind of early-ish on the entering puberty side, for a boy. Anecdotally, I've heard from other parents that their boys were especially difficult in early adolescence, emotionally.

    Hang in there! This stuff is exhausting.

    After reading your suggestion I spoke with my wife, who was frustrated and emotionally drained. And it just clicked, enough is enough. So many avoidable issues.

    So thanks smile
