DS has been having more melts. Poor kid hasn't been like this in ages. We had to do his homework from yesterday, and it was too much for him. I've drawn the line. No more homework through the weekend. There's a report he's supposed to continue working on, but it's not due until Wed. It can wait. He needs a break BADLY.
Every time I see that look in his eyes, that one he gets as he's withdrawing, I just want to scream at that school. Don't we have enough struggles? Do you have to pile on top of that, more and more and more? What do you achieve by doing this? It just makes everyone miserable. Can't you just back off, and let us get on as best we can? Can't you see we're trying? We're not out to make your life more difficult - why do you have work to make ours so rough?
