@ruby3881 Actually next year they are going to do a rewards system with her on behavior, and each day she displays good behavior she gets a sticker for the day, if at the end of the week she has 3 or more stickers she gets a treat from her teacher. This was set up last week in a meeting between the principal, myself, and a lady from her psycharist office whom goes to the school on behalf of the kids. I have had meeting after meeting at that school with teachers and the principal reguarding her educational needs and behavior with them promising to comply with my wishes and then they do not comply.

@Moregoodie That’s exactly right.I am hoping next year is better but doubtful. Year after next when she gets in middle school is when I am expecting it to get better. This principal at the elementary school is something else. She thinks she knows all and her so- called punishments will help no it makes it worse. I am glad to know their is someone else who is with me on these feelings of how these schools are treating our kids. I hope your son has a better year next year and doesn’t get bullied. I hope his little head is ok now. I hope your does does well also. |

@morgoodie she is not the only one that goes out of the class for help but she has more problems then the others do. I told her they were just jealous because she was getting more attention. I know in the classroom she is not getting the help she needs because one assignment she failed and I ask her why and she told me she ask for help and the teacher told her she knew how to do it. I have been fighting with this school since day one. Luckily next year is her last year in that school then she will be in sixth grade and be at the middle school and maybe I can get some where with them. This school has put her in after school detention, in school detention, and suspended her over stupid stuff and a lot of it was stuff she was doing to try and fit in with the others. She has a hard time making friends, she is insecure around her peers because she is unlike them. I was talking to my neighbor and her son has similar problems. He is in third grade, he is just not as bad as my daughter and his mom said she was having a time with the school also. She said they were doing him just like they are my daughter. I told her it is unfair these kids are just like the others only difference is they require a little more patience and attention and it’s as if the school doesn’t want to deal with them. At one time I went to the school board over my child and the assistant superintendant had me fighting mad. He had the nerve to tell me that there is no such disease as ADHD and Behavior Disorder. Those were just pshychiatrist terms for bad parenting and no discipline. If I bust her butt and take things away she liked the diseases would disappear. I told him I know how to raise my child and how she does isn’t from bad parenting. |

@morgoodie Thank you. It sounds like you are dealing with the same thing as we are. My daughter has an IEP set up to help her with reading and math. She goes out of the classroom everyday for the extra help and she does not have as many math problems or as much reading to do in class or at home. In the class there is special accommodations, but they will not provide them on any test. SO there for most test scores are low. Kids have been picking on her about receiving the extra help, I called the school and the principal told me we have to actually see or hear them doing it to do anything about it. Well what about the zero tolerance for bullying policy, I guess that doesn’t apply for her. If that was her doing it, they heard her or not and a parent called she’d be in for it. It burns me up. It is like they are singling these kids out because they aren’t normal. |

@ruby3881 I agree every new site is a gamble. Some of the sites I were taken by were old ones. This was when I first started writing. Since, I have became weary of joining sites and if I do I always like to hear other’s experiences with the site. I am glad you were able to get some of your articles back and post them on other sites. |
|
@ruby3881 I am really thankful for your honest opinion on that site. I like to ask others opinions on sites because I to have run into trouble with sites where I’ve worked then never could get payment, so I usually tend to go on what others say and their experiences on sites before I get to deep. |

For the most part yes most of them are. My 10 year old knows better. I thought her manners and to respect adults and the elderly and she best do it or answer to me. I won’t put up with rudeness or disrespect. What is wrong with todays kids for the most part is internet and TV. Also, the laws on “abuse” most parents are afraid to try to discipline them but you can do it with in the law and within reason. |
|
@ruby3881 Wow, you really had a horrible experience with them. I am finding that all reviews are pretty much negative on them. Usually, you have good and bad, but when they are all bad I stop fooling with them. Thank you for telling me everything about your experiences. @Mark Graham If you do not mind my asking what other writing sites are you on. I am looking for some myself. |

@JoDee Stout Exactly. That’s what I was saying. I have even talked to a neighbor whose child is 1 year behind my daughter and she said they treat him the same way. He has similar problems. It as if they are singling those kids out! |
|
@Rajaraman K Oh okay I thought maybe no reason at all was given to you for your account being banned.I understand now. @JoDee Stout Really. This is the first I have heard of this. Thank you for shedding some light on this. Because from what I had been told this was a new site that had just started up. Thank you. |

@shaloo walia Yes, I have notice that here you get paid by post and visitor. I have also noticed you get paid more for lengthy comments. Thank you for bringing that to my attention. I like here also because of the groups and everyone seems to be extremely friendly and helpful. There are no groups on Elitewriter. You either comment on blogs or write your own post that is the extent of it. @Rajaraman K She is a moderator. I would have emailed support and kept contacting them until I got an answer as to why I had been banned. If you done nothing wrong or nothing against the rules I think you deserve an answer as to why you were banned. |
|
@shaloo walia Yes. I believe you are correct I have earned more here commenting in forums than I have there posting. They do not pay for you posts just the comments and unique visitors. |
|
@shaloo walia I joined and have written 4 blogs but have only made a few cents off of them and have saw where 2 people have cashed out but, it seems to be taking forever. All of my comments on my post have only added up to.25 and I have bunch of comments and visits. I am really starting to wonder if it is worth it. |

@peachpurple I have told the teachers and the principal about her conditions. They tell me they will work with her and keep an eye out on the other pupils. But, this still happens this has been going on since 1st grade and she is now completeing 4th grade. |
