[quote=Anonymous] Apologize tonight if she's not asleep yet, or tomorrow before she goes to school. Say you trust her to get an A for the marking period, or failing that, for the semester. And then move on. I've done that, OP. My 9th grader is 2e: gifted but learning disabled. It is the WORST educational situation, because he needs intellectual challenge, yet also needs support for his disabilities, and can either fail a test or get an A. I have totally lost it on him, more times than I can count. Yet we have a relationship of trust. He forgives me, I forgive him. We have a close bond. His behaviors are absolutely infuriating, but he is intellectually capable of getting As in all his AP and Honors classes. Somehow we're going to survive this kid and this kid is going to survive us, but... it's really hard. (For the record, my other kids don't have these issues.) [/quote]
