Okay. Two things happened yesterday.
One, school got a letter from therapist (at my urging) outlining kid being seen in a therapeutic environment, meeting criteria for separation anxiety.
Two, his teacher is on vacation and he has a substitute.
So...that means at the end of the day, the substitute decides kid is going on field trip tomorrow to go bumper bowling with the rest of his class.
Phone call, everything. They called both of us until they reached one of us. (Me? On phone dealing with appointments. Go figure.)
Jim already had the day off to take him to the new school to check them - so that had to be rescheduled, but. He's going along on field trip - he just can't ride the bus with kid to do it. I'm fine with that.
So - in one fell swoop, I have kid back on field trips and parent allowed to attend and observe. Note things one and two.
I've told Jim I want answers. Too good. Waaaay too easy, with the month and a half we've put in.
If this is a teacher issue, not a school issue - end result is the same, but I'm going to be even less impressed.
But - I hope kid has a great time. He's earned it.
Me? Waiting for the other shoe to fall.
