We're trying to find out how to put him in pre-k here. She is use to an upper middle class life, with tv and the latest things. Everything we own has been a christmas, birthday gift or free, we only have basic utilities and internet. We draw, play games and read.

She disiplines her child through empty threats, and occasional hitting (not abuse, like a slap on the hand). We have designated rules, with designated punishments (so we don't over/under react in bad moods), everything else is more natural punishment, but we have taught him laying your hand on another person in a way they don't want is called assault, it's illegal and people go to jail for it. Miguel had a problem with a parent that did the 1, 2, 3...warning stopped then continued to count. He was very mad that she"didn't know what to do after 3" it took all day to explain and I swear to this day he still doesn't understand.

So everything is going to be a big change for everyone. I'm also still a bit angry at her leaving us homeless 2x do to her actions.
