Yesterday we had our meeting with the school. Ex w was there I was conferenced in. D was not in the meeting. The outcome, they can't help D if she does not go to school. She has missed 90 days this year. They asked exw for explanations since School has been communicating with her since 2011 which I didn't know. Her response, total silence not one explanation. They also asked exw why she didn't follow recommendations the school gave her regarding counseling, her response, silence. They have to go to court and explain her absences. They asked me why I didn't act sooner, line in 2011. That they had sent us letters. I said that I didn't learn about my D's school issues until June of 2011. That's when our sitch started. So the bottom line is that we both suck at parenting, the good thing is that exw heard it from others and not me. So now I need a plan to help D succeed in school.
