UGH!! Deven is making major steps backwards at school this month... He's getting more distracted and squirmy, he's much more easily frustrated and sad... He's much more emotional and losing control of himself... But he won't talk to me... I have tried and tried... I guess I will need to ask the doc about the name of a therapist when we go next week.... I know part of it is dealing w/the divorce and E leaving... part is the confusion of the double parenting btwn me and mom (I talked to mom today and asked her to back off a bit - she agreed... TG although I fear she is brewing on it and will end up telling me she won't come back!! We just have to deal with this for another month or so - that's only about 3 or 4 wks of mom actually being here.) I don't know what else do to with him... I am sure that he's just a mass of confusion and emotion and doesn't know how to handle it all.... I wish I could just wave a magic wand and make it all go away and be better for him and us.... This is all just so frustrating and tiring..... Til next time...
