Hi,

I'm a mother of a 15 year old who has chronic migraines.  He is an over-achiever and very bright but because of his excessive absences in school, a few of his grades have started slipping.  I believe his migraines are brought on by sleep deprivation and stress...two main factors in attending school.  I would like to pull him out of school and home-school him but my husband is totally against it.  Has anyone out there tried home-schooling and seen improvements in the migraines or would you suggest that I leave him in school as long as he is able to keep his grades up?  I just hate seeing him have severe migraines every week of his teenage life.  In the summer when he is not attending school and getting more rest and able to snack when he wants, he seems to have very few migraines.  I would appreciate anyone out there who has some advice on this.  Thank you so much!
