Tomorrow we have T's IEP meeting to try and figure out if this is going to work.  My thought (actually his counselor suggested it) that T drop two classes, instead of one,  and try to salvage the...

He has to be using -even though testing doesn't show it.  He didn't go to school again beecause he had a fever over the weekend and felt lousy today.  His eyes looked glassy when he woke up.  His...

Just received T's interim report from school and although I knew what was going to be on there - it was difficult to see it in writing.  He's failing EVERY class.  For awhile there I was e-mailing...

Can't get T up for school.  He says he's too tired.  Can't sleep at night.  I really don't think he's using.  He is giving up.  This was the test for T by the assistant principal - if he goes a...

Didn't have a good day yesteday - between T not going to school, to him throwing a fit because I wouldn't buy him cigarettes (based on his behavior) to having the Asst. Principal call me to tell me...

Wish I would have done this awhile ago.  Finally - I made an appt. for T to see a counselor.  The one we have come to our house isn't what we are looking for.  He is still good to have - for...

The weather was great for the Walk.  After the Walk there was an awards ceremony.  The top 3 schools received a trophy.  "Our" school placed first for fund raising efforts.  Unfortunately, not...

What a difference a day makes!   I can't believe it ....... T-Man seems to be doing well.  I looked at his Instant Messaging and he was just talking about normal stuff and about being bored.  He...

Yesterday I let this whole situation get the best of me.  I was so down that even when my husband came home he noticed it.  I just couldn't help it.  In fact, the health teacher at my son's high...

Okay -  I think we have some options here but it will depend, I guess on what my husband wants to do.  I cannot make this decision.  And, of course, I am assuming that we can choose the ultimate...

I received a call yesterday from the assistant principal.  T is suspended for a day - today.  He could have rec'd more days but they lumped his infractions into one.  It's not a punishment for...

I  know for sure now, even though I suspected, that T has relapsed.  I'm a little slow, i guess, but I had no real proof because he's been testing clean.  His caseworker is slated to come along...

Yes, we were affected by the storm, too.  As far away as we are from the origin, the winds got up to 71 mph.  Strangely enough, my husband and I were playing our soccer team when the winds...

Although my husband and I don't believe he's using - the side effects of the former usage are really taking its toll.  T-Man got a second chance - found out he can graduate on time from high school...

Okay -  T-Man is going to school - in and out (not feeling well this past week) but he's going - and that's a good thing.  He hasn't caught up, however, - due to absences but he said he's working...
