Five Months?!?

Has it really been that long since I journaled last?

We are moments away (figuratively) from the end of the school year; it has been a roller coaster ride for sure. We all thoroughly despise the school - and still are working to try to get him out of it by next year.

Yes - despise is a very strong word. But, the right one, I believe. He was attacked yesterday by another kid. This is the same kid who, a couple of weeks earlier, fought him and then, when home, sent him an email - calling him a "fag."

Of course, brought all this to the attention of his teacher and the administrators - no action and it escalated to the attack yesterday. Now, I have more higher ups paying attention. All we want is a safe environment where our son can learn and feel free to be himself.
