I went back to thinking that next
year, I would home school. I couldn’t stand that everything the
books said was true. These children are constantly told they aren’t
good enough, not up to par and always in trouble. John encouraged me
to give it one more year and then we could decide. We made a request,
actually more like a demand, for a teacher and we got him. This
teacher was very impressed with Todd because he was an athlete and
Todd played for the same soccer club team that the teacher's son
played for. He also spent a lot of time outdoors with his class. This
was awesome for Todd. The more physical activity Todd had, the
happier he was. He also had an reward system, not a punishment
system, that motivated Todd. We were so relieved.
