Bringing a lawyer can be very adversarial too. If you bring one then many districts will bring their lawyer too. Then it gets expensive on both sides and that money can be better spent (I mean, unless it has truly escalated to that point).
I don't want to do it. I'm thinking more along the lines of consulting with the lawyer and seeing if she has any advice. I keep thinking I must be doing something wrong on my end, or the communication wouldn't be so strange.
I wish there were a better placement for DS, and am kind of building up Plan B in my mind. He *loves* his program, though.
