I have a meeting at the school tomorrow to discuss my daughters social difficulties and behaviour problems. She is waiting for appointments about autism etc.
The thing is I am totally terrified I HATE talking to people, I especially hate meetings. I have lost or had to leave every job I have ever had because of this - I know pathetic (thank god I have a loving and understanding dh!).
I say stupid things just today the teacher came to talk to me and for some reason I used the word weird to describe my own child in front of both her and the teacher I mean seriously I would have slapped myself if I wasn't myself.
The annoying thing is that the meeting is to discuss social difficulties which I am 99.9% sure she gets from me. I know I need to make a list of questions because otherwise I won't ask anything I will flounder.
But is it really odd to do this I am pretty sure the school already think I am a total freak (I once squirted an entire bottle of yellow paint over a 5 year old that wasn't mine and that was just at the induction day - it's been downhill since).
So aibu to take a list and notes? Well more is this a normal human being thing to do?
