minus-squareanotherspringchickenlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·3 months agoOh, that’s no good. Hope you’re feeling better soon and he feels calmer. Stress can be catching. Is he doing the assessment today?
minus-squareTaleyalinkfedilinkarrow-up6·3 months agoit’s kinda a multi stage process, there’s a test, then a psych, then another test, then there’s things for me to fill out for the outsider perspective, he’s digging up old report cards, all that fun stuff.
