[quote=Anonymous]If in public school, have you filed any bullying forms? Homeschool is legitimate option - know some who opt out of public school to restore sanity and self-esteem, but caveat is that you can't shelter child forever, and kid still has to eventually learn how to navigate being in school, working with peers, etc. Being in middle and high school socially can be good preparation for adulthood, so there is a balance to be struck there. Also, when homeschooling, you lose the IEP, esp the protections that come with it. Can also homeschool for a year or couple, possibly redshirt when returning to public school, but consider putting child in a different school than where he was last so peers aren't like "why are you a grade below now when you were same grade last year?" If kiddo is "immature" compared to peers, an extra year might be helpful. BTW, if he has IEP, in high school, can take longer than 4 years to exit, if IEP team agrees. GL.[/quote]
