Oh, Jen! {{{hugs}}} I'm not sure where to begin. I'm sorry for what you've been going through. This has to have been (and continue to be) a difficult process for all of you. As Em's mother I know you want to protect her physical and emotional health. {{{more hugs}}}
I can't believe the school would think of blaming YOU!
It sounds like you're on the right track to make a bad situation much better. It's nice that the gifted specialist wants to identify Em's needs. If you decide to homeschool you've got plenty of parents here who will gladly help.
If there's anything I can do please let me know!
Here's to a peaceful weekend.
Ann
