I feel like we're drowning here. My son has been diagnosed for 2 years now - highly gifted and learning disabled. I guess the current term is 2e (twice exceptional). It's been twice the frustration and twice the battle, that's all I can say. I think we have to leave his public school. It will break his heart. :(

Yet another thing I never thought I'd say to my son "No dear, you mean dismemberment, disembowelment is when you rip out the organs...."

I've been on Truu since the beginning, but I only started logging in a couple years ago. Always been a bit of an outsider I guess. I just wanted to say that it was nice to come here, like a neighbourhood hang, where you recognized the familiar faces. Thanks for that.

Why do I always feel like every other Mom has it all together, and I don't? Does everyone feel this way, or is it just me?

I still have all my old barbie stuff (two huge boxes). I just passed them down to my daughter. It's kinda cool watching her play with them.
