I am very frustrated. Things seem to be going rapidly downhill for DS Everyday brings a new problem with school. In addition to grade problems, he has been mistakenly given cut slips when he wasn't cutting. I just feel like I don't know where to go. I have a call into his school with his teachers, the assistant principal and his caseworker, with no response from any of them. I also have a call into M to talk to her.

He seems to be fine, but something is wrong, I just don't know what and I don't know what to do for him. He has plenty of time for homework, even with the extra school day. Is he overwhelmed, is he rebelling either actively or passively, what's up. Anyone who ever tells me that being a parent is easy is not doing it right!

We'll be going away for a couple of days this week and it should be fun. I just hope the weather is good. I am also worried about P. He has been going flat out for several weeks and I am concerned he will get sick after all this. I am going to try and drive as much as possible so he can rest while we are traveling. I wore my clothes yesterday. They were pretty comfortable, though they will take some getting used to, especially the bra part. The stays do work well, but it's not quite the same. It's a bit stiffer because of the way it is made with boning. Time to get out of here.
