School is almost done which in a way is good. My son is tired and ready for a break. The changes at school are getting to be overwhelming for him. Kids are all getting hyped up for the end of school. Class structure is getting flexible. And to add to all the end of school chaos we are getting ready to move to an entirely new state. Needless to say, he is showing the effects with meltdowns and aggression at school. We talk daily about what is coming and counting down days. I am hoping that as long as our routine stays consistent that we can minimize the anxiety for him. I have been very fortunate this year in the support from his teacher and others at school. No one has labeled him as bad or unreachable. He is a sweet and very stubborn child. He has shown that he can control some of his anxiety in school. And he gets a lot of encouragement when he gets frustrated or agitated and contains his impulse to lash out. I am very proud of him. He has taught me a lot and continues to do so daily. It seems that everyday I have to reevaluate how to handle a new challenge.
