I still have weepy moments. We live right next to the public elementary school, and every time I see it, I get a pang. The fact is that taking a leap that far off the beaten path is hard and scary, and being a little emotional comes with the territory. You're doing just fine! smile

One other thought: be aware that now that your son is happier and his behavior is better, he may connect with kids he didn't connect with before. Unhappy kids don't connect, but happy kids attract friends. It might not hurt to look at neighbors again if there's *any* chance there might be an improvement. (Maybe not, of course. But maybe...) It is awfully handy to have a good friend or two close by!

Keep chugging along! You're doing just fine! smile
