Okay. I've got a big problem here. The thing is, I can't do mainstream at high school. Mum seems to think that I won't be able to handle it because you have to change classes every lesson. So what? She can't say that I can't handle it! If she'd let me try it, who knows. I might actually like it. I'd love to go back to school to get a decent education, so I can get a job when I'm older. But that's the problem. Being homeschooled isn't helping me at all. I'm in year 11, the second to last year in high school. I don't think I'll even be allowed to graduate...
Another thing. I was in a 'special ed' class in year 8, 9 and a bit of year 10. I then started mainstream craft and design classes, but they stopped. No one told me why.
I was placed in a "special ed" class when I was in year 7...I didn't even know that it was a special ed class until I read a letter from the school that my mum said I could open.
Anyway......
I think that your mother should let you do mainstream school...if you want to, it's your choice. If you can handle it, then great. If you can't, then atleast you tried.
Try explaining to her why you want to do mainstream school and hopefully she will listen.
I wish you luck.
