Some well-needed good news with s15. In the divorce I pulled him out of his old school where he had become involved with a bad group of friends (s15 was arrested for shoplifting a big knife), and he has had a tough time with the transition, and finding friends at the new school.
On Friday, the school counselor spoke to s15 for a 2nd time, and he told her he was doing "a little better". Ok, small steps are good. She is also working on getting people to sit with him at lunch.
He came to my place first thing on Saturday morning (he has spent the last 3 months of weekends at ExW's place, so he can hang with his old bunch of thugs, err his friends.) But today he asked for $10 so he could go to 'Jimmy John's' sandwich shop. He spruced up his hair, made some calls. He's making friends here! Yay! This is an answer to prayers.
Next week is teacher conferences, so he has 3 days off from school. He originally asked to spend this time at ExW's. But let's see if he changes his mind.
This is an answer to prayers.
