Well, he e-mailed me about something else--my son hasn't shown up for his

morning resource sessions twice now, so I went ahead and e-mailed back. My son

was doing testing for his autism eval yesterday and missed the bus today, so

maybe that is why he missed him (and maybe not). So, I went ahead and e-mailed

back and asked when was good to call, along with the rest of my e-mail. He

e-mailed back, introduced himself a little, and expounded a little on his way.

I don't think he is really getting what I am saying regarding " taking

responsibility " , although he had some good ideas, most of which I already do and

agree with, but still. So, next time, I think I will try a phone call, just to

see if we can get more in sync. I haven't decided whether his e-mail is asking

for a reply; probably so since he has concerns. I'm just trying to get out of

it because writing is easier.

Thanks for all the suggestions and support. If I'm not saying much, it is

because ITA.

Guess I'd better go take care of this. I'm not getting much work done today!
