So for over a month now my oldest child who is 8 years old and usually loves school and refuses to stay home sick has been sent home nearly everyday for vomiting. We have taken him to several doctors... No one knows what is going on with him.... He recently told the doctor he poops blood now and then, so they did a fecal smear test ( if you have had one of these you know it's painful and no child would continue to be sick if they were faking after that)
He also told us his stomach " burns " a lot.. He says he tells his teacher and she tells him he is lying and to sit back down... We have an appointment tomorrow and he will be checked for ulcers ( I'm sure that's what it is) but I'm pissed because this stupid woman could t even be bothered to inform me that my child was making this complaint.... I am currently trying to get in touch with her to ask her myself if he is complaining of a burning sensation yet she won't return my phone calls or emails.... She could have written a note informing me of this. But no... She just tells him he is faking... Now my son hates going to school because his teacher calls him a liar, and refuses to call on him when he is trying to be a good student and raise his hand to answer a question.... I am ready to just home school him!!!

How the blinking hell can you think this kid's problem is due to some bullying at a new school???

I hope to goodness that Pontipines is right because I am literally sat with my jaw dropped. This isn't NORMAL. He's been traumatised. And your interaction with him is just plain odd. Odd. And you're worried about his teacher not reporting something you yourself didn't notice? In the context of everything else this child prodigy has witnessed? Newsflash: My nearly 10 year old is off the scale bright (it's not a brag, it's a downside of his fecking ASD) but he isn't bored by making sure he is only exposed to age appropriate entertainment, it's not exactly like there is a shortage out there... oh but hang on, I sense guns and violence are coooooooool man...

This thread it like a scab I can't leave alone...

Ipitythepontines- firstly I have not lied about a dam thing on this forum... None of it... Sorry but you can not just make this up. You obviously have some deep seeded trust issues, in which someone has obviously dropped the ball in your up bringing. Just because I know my families history does not mean you can ridicule me for its facts. I have absolutely nothing to prove to you on my families history- oh btw my family is in the museum at fort Campbell if you ever go feel free to stop in and pay your respects, then you can apologize. I'm sorry you don't know your families past as well as I do, but we tend to have a strong family bond and display out families medals, photos, burial flags and such proudly ... Again sorry if you don't... But that doesn't give you the right to decide what is fact and what is not- see the only person on this forum who knows is me. And seeing as how I have no proof of who you are I don't think continuing this conversation with you any longer would be a wise idea...

MSDEVERE- while you are correct on the current requirements; these are subject to change and waivers- I figured it was self explanatory that all soldier have to complete the normal basic and AIT training before selection( sorry I tend to forget not everyone is use to the military or their ways of working)
You can have it added into your enlistment contract that you are to go to selection, after you have finished basic and AIT as well as any other schooling ( jump school and such)
If your scores on the ASFAB are high enough that is. As well as your physical health and PT scores meet or exceed regulation. Hell we had one old sergeant nah in 5 th group ( I'm sure he is retired now) who stood 5 foot tall and for some reason everyone was scared of him... Sweet guy though.. All the men in the unit told us he was mean and would kill you with a smile ( I still to this day see his as a cuddle bug who loved the kids lmao) you can obtain waivers still for SF but they are only granted to people they really want... SF does not have the same rules as regular army, for instance they can put their hands into their pockets, ride in military vehicles without the full battle rattle, there is actually quite a stink between regular army and SF ... For those reasons.

Since MNHQ haven't touched this thread, I think it acts as a very good piece of evidence as to how limited their actions are against posters who aren't all they seem.

"Score a General Technical score of 107 or higher and a combat operation score of 98 on the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery."

DS's friend who is joining the Navy had a score higher than 107 and scored 100 on the ASVAB. At that point he was qualified for every single job in the navy, but he was found to have slight red green colour blindness so is now restricted to naval intelligence. He was crushed but his mother was danging polkas around the kitchen. Just to warn you. They are very, very picky, and getting some sort of waiver is not guaranteed. But the whole special forces thing is about the trauma your son is trying to deal with, alone and without support or understanding.

Just a few random questions:
Why is there a Confederate flag flying on someone's truck on a US military base?
What would the response be if your DS challenged the flying of a Confederate flag on grounds that it is a symbol of hatred and treason, one fully supported by the man who shot Lincoln?

Why is an 8 yo child doing a 1st Grade assessment test?

On to the heart of the matter:
We lived in the nations of Nashville tn* at the time. You even hear gun shots on Christmas in that area. We were only in that area for a year before I got out of the lease and moved to a trailer in the country. ( I hate the inner city ) that area of Nashville is crawling with thugs. He only witnessed violence such as the gun shots once, and once a man tried to mug me, and once the idiot father of my second son thought he would be stupid while drunk. That was only one year. The most of his life he hasn't dealt with violence unless it's how to survive a slender man attack in minecraft or to take on the evil villain of fable. Any time the people fired off shots and he heard them we just told him it was like the army out at the range ( we lived close enough to the range at one point to feel the percussion from the weapons) or someone else practicing lol but somethings are just out of your control, and kids will see something now and then. Btw he didn't see much when I went running out for the two girls; he got yanked from his bed and hidden in the closet with his brother behind a bomb/bullet proof gun case my dad had given me. We didn't have time to tell him what had happened until after the thugs were gone- yes her heard the shots but; he also seen the two girls after and seen they were ok. He also witnessed courage that night

A few points:

*From city-data.com, 2010:
"The nations is the ghetto, the ground is poisoned with lead and mercury from run off from existing factories, the lumberyard,and the oil refinery you are in the shadow of,and people still eat the veggies, everyone has cancer and medical problems, there are patches of run down trailers and shotgun houses with plastic windows,most are below the poverty level,cockroaches run rampant, there are dive bars everywhere ,gangs are always fighting, and everyone there is a dirt redneck, i wouldn't recommend moving to the nations unless you are looking to maintain your meth or crack habit easily, like by hollering out the window. just my two cents as a life long Nashville native"
(Apparently the area is 'gentrifying' now. Probably had a bit of a setback in the housing crisis.)

Would love to know more about the drunk 'idiot father' of your second child and the effect he had on your son Hmm

Slender man -- sweetest Jesus come and squeeze us. What are you thinking Shock allowing him to be exposed to that?????
Seriously.

You are making terrible choices and your son is paying the price and will continue to do so.

None so blind as those who will not see.

Bullshit (sneezes)
Sorry I know there are some lovely people on mumsnet but this person demonstrates the worst of America and the gungho attitude that prevails. Everything is everyone else's fault.
I really hope that's her gone....
