I tried, I changed, but still am getting divorced!

got it covered. Phew!

THE BOY was suspended yesterday for punching 2 kids in the face because they wouldn't give him the books he wanted. (he is not a tough and violent boy, he is just mentally 2 or 3 years old, I swear.)

I think the administration is getting the picture. The translator was AWESOME because when I met with the mom at the end of the day, she came right out and said if she was expecting him to have a 1:1 (at her old school district, they were going to try to have him go to a first grade classroom with an assistant) then she needs to tell the principal and the special ed department.SHe said it would help her get through the process MUCH faster!!!!! heck yeah! It is true, parents have power, Parents have power.

I did express how much we do care about THE BOY and even though he is highly disruptive, we can see that he doesn't MEAN to do these things- that he seems to not understand. He came from a class of 9 kids with 3 teachers (1 teacher and 2 assts..1:3 ratio) for 3 hours. Then gets to a class of 22 with 1 teacher 1:22 ratio)at a school day for almost 7 hours!

I can't wait to give the translator a hug and a kiss when I can! (lol)

So the other thing was that I had back to school night and only 8 parents showed up! out of 22. And the parents who complained about me to the principal? No show. Of course. There are parents who are all bark and no bite.

Good news is that I have 4 parents who wanted to volunteer.

Now I have to do something fun this weekend...need a break and a life! and need to get back into exercising for the stress relief.
