Yep, the supervisor I talked to today said H had just washed his hands of the car situation and wasn't communicating and all that, so I think he realized what was going on. I said yeah, he's washed his hands of our marriage too. Kind of what he does lately anyway.
We agreed to split the fee. I don't have the capability of paying the whole thing, and still paying the $365 next week. So he says I'll pay half if you support the decision to put D9 into public school. Well, I had already decided to do that anyway (which I didn't say). And I say I would support it unless at some point there is a reason not to (like with S15 when he was in school). He said you'll take her to school? And I said yes, and help her with homework, and a little tutoring, but I won't do the hours of tutoring like I had to do with S15. B/c I'm hoping to work during D9's school hours and then homeschool S15 the rest of the week. And he's old enough now to do some on his own as well, and hopefully will keep becoming more independent as time goes on. Then he says to me what I am getting for $250 (gee doing the right thing) and I said you're getting my support on the public school for D9 (although I never would have done that if I hadn't already decided to do that).
He also tried to push me at the same time for S15 to go to high school. I told him I've heard nothing positive of that from anyone yet. I called the high school twice this week and left vms for the guidance dept. (they said I would talk to them re: the special ed there). They've never called me back yet. So not too impressed. I told him that, and said I'll try to keep reaching them. I don't even think H thinks it would be good. Just says we have to have both kids in public school b/c of the $$$. I did not agree to that. So, 2 x 4s???
Oh, and Kat, I did ask the L what would happen if school doesn't work out for D9 and there are a lot of problems? She said I could withdraw her. I'm guessing it might not be that easy, but at least it seems like I'm not locked into that if it's a huge problem it sounds like.
