16 August 2012;
I go to my Last Day of Summerschool and Dad goes to the Courts to make his point about this Child-Support Issue. If Dad succeeds, it will make no differrence because we use everything we get throught the Month. I Don't know how Dad did everything he did with what little Dad gets. The Van is Safer, but Dad ran out of Monies before he could Fix Everything.
Dad has been trying to get me an iPad that can have a version like P.E.C.S. on it to help me communicate. He goes tomorrow (Friday) to meet the Person that is Going to Help him to Help me get the iPad. He has been working on this for the last Month or so. He is going to show the courts today. He has a lot to prove to the courts today. He wants to show them everything he does to provide care for my needs.
My Dad wants to Work and once again Hold his own, but currently he has only 4 Hours a Day from Tuesdays to Thursdays and all Day over the Weekens to Work in the Summertime, and in the Regular Schoolyear he has 6 Hours a Day from Mondays to Thursdays and again all Weekend to Work. Either way, My Dad can only get a Part-Time Job, and the Employer has to be Very Tollerant. I don't know if Dad will be even able to work after I reach 18yo because I will still be going to school all the way to 21yo. My Dad will have me in his Full Legal Custody by the time that I am 18yo, but that does not mean that he will find an employer that will tollerate what he needs to do on my behalf. We will have to wait and see.
My Dad was up (Really) Early this Morning.
0715; I am up, Ate 3 Servings of Oatmeal while my Dad had a cup of Coffee, and I am Ready for my Last day of Summerschool. At 0740 we are downstairs awaiting the Bus.
My Dad went to Court. Mom was M.I.A.. Dad met with 2 people, First a Woman and what she offered was $80.00/mo for 6 Months, and Dad Refused, so she sent him to a Man that said Dad owed $100.00/mo for 6 Months. If Dad was to Fail One Payment, They would attach a $250.00 Fine and Arrest Dad for 3 Months. The Man was 'Mean' and did not care to hear anything from Dad, and Whenever Dad asked a Question he was Threatened with 'Contempt of Court' and 3 Months Jail. The Man made it Hard for Dad to do anything because he Used Threats to make his point. The Man never changed his expression and Obviously did not care. My Dad was accused of being a Quitter because My Mom Harassed him with Protective Services and made my Dad's Employer Mad at him. My Dad did however get the Forms to get the 'Child-Support' abolished. He needs to make 3 Copies and have the Original after they are filled out.
So Now, I Cannot have anything special from here on out. Dad did currently take the $100.00/mo deal, even against his Gutt Feelings. He was told of a Possible 'Pro-Bono' Lawyer named Sarah (394-3767 ext.229) that works at the Cristo-Rey Center. He plans on Contacting her soon. Maybe, I'm just saying, Dad should have went in front of the Judge. Dad asked the Angry Man about Services and Actions that he should take, and the Angry Man stated that He was not there to Assist anyone. The Angry Man told Dad that he should be Working and not had given up. What is Dad to do when he has to keep running to see why PS is at his Home? Who is going to Hire my Dad when he has to leave suddenly to see Why they are investigating our home?
Well My Dad wants to Stock up on Personal Supplies before Winter and Utilities get really high. He knows that he should be Stocking up on Food, but with what he gets, it is going to be very difficult. Dad Also has to get me at least 4 Pants that fit me well, especially the Length. I had to have grown at least 4 Inches over the Summer.
1426; Had Tropical Fruit Cocktail and a Bananna for a snack. Now I am Watching 'Stuart Little' right now and leaning against Dad, Giving him my Toys so he can aske me what they are, then Eventually Telling me, then making the appropiate Noises. I have him trained well. I am Also playing with one of my Paper-Jamz Guitars. Tonite I go to my Moms and will be there for the first part of Summer Break, then it's back with my Dad the second part so he can get me back into a Routine Suitable for School. It rained earlier, but has stopped.
Dad is Concerned that the iPad will be Stolen and told my Advocate about it. She will look into finding out how to make it Trackable. Dad will Definately have to make a Back-up of all of the Programs that are placed on the Device. Just in case something does happen, He will be Able to Restore the iPad to the way that I Like and have grown used to. My Dad is Smart.
My Dad has Collected all of my Evaluations from Last Year. They are Required to be able to get the iPad. Diane (my Advocate) needs to know where I am with what I know, then she wants to see me personally after I return to my Dad's Care. My dad is really trying to get me whatever I deserve, Whatever should have been given to me to Help me Become a better Learner. Seems that some parts of the System are for themselves. The 2pm appointment for tomorrow has been Confirmed.
1451; Dad just noticed that I have a Headache. He Believes that Autism and Headaches go Hand-In-Hand, and is possibly a reason for the Learning Disability. Dad Figured it out! I was in Pain and that's why my Eyes were crossed. After 'Exercizing my Demons' (B.M.) the pain was gone. My Eyes are an Indication of Several things, and None of which are Related. I have several Cues when I have to 'Excize the Demons'. Dad is Clever enough to know them. Same when I have a Full Bladder.
1633; I am very Agitated. Possibly due to Hunger. DAD! Make me Dinner!
1715; I LOVE Spanish Rice and Soft Shell Taco's! I Ate 'till I burped! My Dad was under the impression that I did not eat any Lunch while I was at school today.
1845; I am Agitated again. Dad has tried everything and there is only one Conclusion...I know where I am going to go soon. He Already dressed me in the Clothes my Mom sent me in and he Just put my Shoes on that My Mom had Bought me. He promised me a ride in the Van, which I like. Riding in Dad's Van usually means we are going somewhere fun, but this is Thursday. We Cruised around so I could at least hear my Favorite Songs on my mp3 player and we arrived at Mom's on time. She made a big deal out of going somewhere, but I was uninterrested and tried to remain in the Van. Dad gently moved me around until I exited the Van. Does he Love Me? If so, Why does he want me to leave? I Love him and want to Stay. This Confuses me. My Dad told me while going to Mom's that I was going to be there for 8 days.
