'I am a useless wreck!'; Joey still struggles with self-estime and confidence.  It is so saddening and frustrating as he is making so much progress, and is so gifted and smart in many ways.  But it will take more than a few moths to turn everything around.  I hope that we have the time.  Unfortunately, his behaviour has not been great recently, either at home or in school.  There is just this frustration and anger still inside Joey that he finds hard to control.  We can deal with it at home but there is little that we can do at school.  Unfortunaaetly, the day after the rather positive feedback from the teachers, Joey had a bad day.  He is in no way nasty but sometimes gets over-excited and will not calm down.  Problem on Friday was that there was a potential student and his parents in the class and Joey, trying to 'welcome' him was over-loud and simply would not calm down.  His teachers have advised us that the school administration would react badly and we can be expected to be called in to discuss.  Worst case scenario is that Joey is giving an ultimatum.  Bottom line is that the school will not keep kids with behavioural problems.  Fingers crossed.
