[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have some extremely gifted kids who are extremely mentally troubled as well...

I have some not mentally troubled students who are just not as academically gifted...

Guess whose parents actually listen and believe me if I say there is a problem? Not the gifted kids! Oh no-there is NO WAY their child COULD ever....

The problem IS the parenting. So yeah, look in the mirror. A real look. Maybe you AREN'T the problem (and I know many wonderful parents who do everything for their kids) but also, maybe you are. I'd wage, if you're someone reading these comments and getting super defensive, you know, deep down, you are the problem. Maybe you need some help. These remarks aren't meant to be disparaging, we could all use help from time to time.[/quote]

This nonsense amounts to "I don't like your opinions about virtual learning, therefore you must be a bad parent". Sometimes, you will encounter people who you disagree with, and those individuals are mostly not terrible people. Recognizing that is part of being a mature adult.[/quote]

Virtual ended two years ago.  Its a moot point except for the families still in virtual and virtual looks very different now.  Blaming virtual for mental health issues makes no sense.  It's just not that simple.

As a parent, you need to help your child and get them help.  The school system is not equipped to deal with it or many special needs.  While it might be nice if they did, they don't.  You need to get your child to a therapist and or/psychiatrist and have them evaluated if needed by a psychologist.  You can ask the school through an IEP but the school usually does superficial reports and not necessarily what the child needs.  Some kids will need to get more intensive treatment or crisis treatment as well.[/quote]
