Squeaks,
Your DS11 sounds like a lovely person. Thanks for sharing him with us. I'm very glad to hear that you have a good support team and that the meds are doing the best that can be expected.

Good luck with the books.

I'm glad to hear that the achievement scores don't reflect his daily performance in school.

Is homeschooling an option?
My fear is that what he is learning in school:
1) Life is boring
2) I'm a bother
3) Practicing my 'tune it out' skills
4) I can get As with no effort
is worse than what he would learn from sitting at home all day watching TV and playing computer games.

I don't think that you can ask the teachers to 'change who they are' or how they do their job, or even what they see their job as being, but I do think that you can change their perspective on your son with the info in the 'Transforming' books.

Please keep us posted and let us know how it's going. It's good to have a place to brag about your sweetie!

Love and More Love,
Grinity
