did everything they felt they could....

my story... my son was bullied and teased, and not being able to change the school or community, I took him out of school and found a way to get him into another school and community... he ended up finding his place and was state champion in his senior year (x-country).... we were fortunate, it could have gone the other way
we need so much help taking care of our kids sometimes
