I caused my DS(10) to get detention in school

Wow ~ can't believe this thread had life over the weekend too! Well, I'm happy to report that it's been since Wednesday that DS served his detention & he's doing just great & he's had such an easy dispositon too! Who is this child?? Of course, if I'm not ranting & raving in the morning for him to get up, get ready, & keep hounding him all morning than life should be easier for ALL of us. I guess that's why he's had a good dispositon!

isyne4u ~ you must be one of those 'nurturing' teachers I talked about earlier. You said that you work with the parent to see that the kids learn the lessons they need too. That's what I feel my DS's teacher did & so far it's been a positive experience.

the bottom line is that this child has learned a lesson...if not that he needs to hurry in the morning and listen to mom, but that mom, teacher, and AP are all on the same wave length. there is consistency between school and home and this child knows he can't get away with something at home and the rest of the world not find out about it!!

I have a wonderful Kinder. teacher for my ds and when I have problems at home (having never raised a 5 year old with adhd) she has plenty of advice for me and for ds if he needs it.

Great job mom and school!!
