Frankly I don't how you all deal with it day to day. From reading all the posts my dd is bright but not in same league as many of the kids on the board. They must need so much more than they're getting. I flat out told my dd's teacher that I was not going to fight with my kid about doing her work quickly anymore. It is just causing too much stress and anxiety. I guess we all have our good days and our bad days. This board is very helpful in letting out some of the frustration in a safe environment.

..and neato, "some days a lay off would be welcome news just so long as I have enough cash stuffed under my mattress!"
