Could you get social services to help you out. Have you googled schools for diagnoses that your Son has?Good luck. And have you tried the parents board? Fondly, Phillipa

You might try www.brainplace.com and posting to the forums and try www.addforums.com and posting to the parents forums there. Also post this in psychology on Babble?
good luck!

you might want to google "unschooling" or "un-schooling". Its a whole movement devoted to moving away the authoritarian, conformist set-up of today's mainstream schools towards something more humane (but still educational) and empowering. I wish I had been "un-schooled" as a kid. I think adbuster's did an article or two on them a couple months ago (www.adbusters.org)...you might find the article online, or you maybe you could order a back-issue. Good luck!
