[quote=Anonymous]Does anyone else have this problem?

In laws think I am making it up or exaggerating the effect on school. It has been very difficult to find a school that is willing to work with him because he is 2e, so he is homeschooled with a mix of online and homeschool curriculum. Parents think it’s my fault or that I am exaggerating that schools won’t work with him, but he has been rejected from a dozen privates, including ones recommended by educational consultants, with a great academic and behavioral record because of his SN. The homeschool is working but it’s very isolating. He is on a sports team but that is the only social outlet he gets. In the past, teachers have said I am in denial when I share his diagnosis. Other parents of kids with SN have not liked us because he is not SN enough. I’ve had parents tell me that his SN doesn’t count because he is 2e so not really SN. Parents with non SN kids have told me that they think he has a behavior problem not an SN (he has motor and minor vocal tics). They think he tics because I haven’t taught him self control.

He’s in 7th grade and his only friends are virtual through the online curriculum we use or on his sports team or summer activities.[/quote]
