I don't know that it helps anything for the school to know the circumstances, but you are better able to assess that for you than I. In my case, I deal with grades and behaviors very specifically, (regardless of what is happening at home) there are expectations.
I get the F's and alot more (I have a D that see's a C once a week and will for quite awhile b/c of serious self-destructive behaviors), IMO if you deal with that instead of projecting what might have caused it and/or feeling guilty it works and then you don't have a cast of folks with alot of personal info.
Make sure the kids know you're always available to take about anything with them esp anything that's important to them. They have their friends too (not always a good thing) and if you think it's necessary take them to see a C.
I have been pretty fortunate to find the right people and things.
Added the lose,quit quote to my email signature and spruced it up with color.
I need to work on my patience. Like the new counselor,we're all on the right track.
The only thing that she added to what you have already said, was I do need to contact an atty about my rights as a parent, in case she pushes the issue. Did that,know my rights, when the time is presented to me, I'll explain them in a non threatening way. After talking to her or you.
Haven't heard from S since Sunday,but i'm texting calling away. D is actually talking to me,told her i was going to pick her up Sunday for a couple hrs,phone ok, no friends, buh,bye.
I read how to forgive you and wrote the kids a letter each,run that by DB coach on Saturday,then follow her lead.
I found some real simple articles on being an extrodinary father. Which hey I found have all the attributes.
I also found a real simple article on postive thinking.
Where should I post them? Here or I can put an email address here and forward them.
AYK,
This was clear, concise, well written , and to the point.....
D always struggled, we've been to vision therapy,bellaphysics,done the homework for her,you name it.
I could never get it thru wifes' head that she D and I learn differently and quit getting frustrated,just tell us consisley don't leave it up to us to read and comprehend.
The out to late, MLC doesn't work like the stages read,I think she's dealing with Anger and Replay and can't handle D,knows that and it's my fault.
