Guilt

I am feeling tremedously guilty for skipping yesterday. It was a Friday after a long week, and I tried to catch up on everything else so I let it slide. We have had a lot going on lately that involves a lot of time. We have someone stayng with us for 3 weeks, and there was a little conflict that needed immediate attention. I also spoke with someone from the public school and made sure that the person who has the problem with me doesn't come to the pre-school anymore. I requested that she not be present at the IEP meeting, but they can't promise me anything. They said they could ask her to step out after she presents her material. I have gotten some good homeschool information, so I feel confident I have a backup. It really doesn't matter since she will still be at the pre-school level. They want me to put her in a regular kindergarten class without knowing anything about her. Even after I tell them, this one woman is pushing for it. They say she needs older role models. So I plan to bring up 2 of my children with September birthdays who couldn't start kindergarten until they were a couple weeks shy of 6 years old and reading in pre-k. What role models did they have? What special accomodations were made for them? They needed it more than my little one. I can keep her back and she will only be 2 months older than her sisters were when they started kindergarten. By holding her back, I am keeping her with her emotional and developmental appropriate age peers. I wish they could take the blinders off. I just found out that the mother of the violent boy at pre-school is using sensory as an excuse for his punching. Okay, so we have a perfectly adjusted just turned 4 year old and a just turned 4 year old violent boy to compare S to. They look at the other little well adjusted girl from China and think that any adoption issues are an excuse for S, because just look at this little angel with the same circumstances. Then they look at the other boy with so-called sensory issues who is just a monster and she doesn't fit into that either. Looks like they were right, she's just a spoiled little princess. It's so frustrating. What is to explain the little boy teaching her the f-word amongst others? Can they blame that on sensory?
