Thanks to all of you. Kimmy was up to a little past midnight completing her homework. She was completely frustrated and upset with herself. I have to admit, I was feeling the same way.

As you know, we are staying in a hotel so the situation is not ideal for any of us but I heard her crying herself to sleep. I asked her if she was ok and she pretended that nothing was wrong. This adds to my guilt.

I understand what all of you are saying and it has given me a new way to look at the situation. I did email her counsellor last night and received a reply about 5 minutes ago. The cousellor has forwarded the information to the special education coordinator and she will be in touch with me in the next few days. This makes me feel a little better because I feel that the wheels are in motion now.

Last night, I felt so powerless. I think my frustration was that I could have prevented this in the first place. I know that Kimmy is getting older (13 YIKES) and that she needs to make some of her own decisions to learn lessons in life but it's hard when the decisions she has made do not work out.

Thank you, all of you for making me feel that I have done the right thing. It's funny, how one tracked minded I can feel when I initially made my post but after reading these responses, you guys make me feel that I did the right thing by my daughter. That makes me feel good.

I will keep you posted on the outcome of this.
