My Buddy is four and he does the run away and fall down in the parking lot too. It makes me want to cry right now just thinking of it. I have no idea what to do.

No matter how much we can try to explain the special circumstances and needs kids with a history of abuse/neglect have, some will never get it. And, let's face it, some people in education think they know your kid better than you do. <BR/><BR/>I remember calling the local school to set up services forMaggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06956114780055557451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29879205.post-83763292436884762862007-04-13T19:42:00.000-05:002007-04-13T19:42:00.000-05:00Wow.

Totally.<BR/><BR/>Also, if that was the first time she'd ever seen a three-year-old run away from his parent and ignore pleas to stop, she must wear a blindfold to work every day. I've never met a three-year-old who *didn't* do that, including my own (bio) daughter. It's only recently that I've let her stop holding my hand in parking lots, and she's eight!Vanessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07023601396140884557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29879205.post-45183234383682579532007-04-13T12:15:00.000-05:002007-04-13T12:15:00.000-05:00Maybe a pashmina or two from belgium?Do you like c...Maybe a pashmina or two from belgium?<BR/>Do you like coffee or tea?

The state regards him as the lowest level of care (which he very well may have been before the last reunification almost a year ago), and as far as cognitive functioning goes, he's (now) ahead of the curve, so assistance on that front is nearly impossible to get.<BR/><BRMaerlowehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12045052250287649750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29879205.post-22370909350986960232007-04-13T07:14:00.000-05:002007-04-13T07:14:00.000-05:00Absolutely she stepped over that line!

People like SDC have a very narrow-minded view of what all children are like -- even the so-called "normal" ones -- and when a child doesn't fit into that neat little picture, they start making sweeping generalizations.<BR/><BR/>For the mature advice: Maybe you could be the better person by presenting her with information on Huck's behavioral issues (Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05497284693223622245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29879205.post-70117232782946016862007-04-13T07:02:00.000-05:002007-04-13T07:02:00.000-05:00What an absolutely horrible experience.
