Hi - I'm knew to the forum, but I know how you feel (or I think I do). Even though my daughter didn't take time off at school, she was a nightmare. Walking on egg shells was exactly how I felt. Back then I was not aware of aspergers and just thought she was amazingly difficult! but now she is 20 and she has recently dropped out of uni and all these aspie issues have really risen to the surface. We are taking her to a private psychologist on Monday who has experience with aspergers. We don't know if she is an aspie, but just want to help her move on. Your story really touches me and I can only say just hang in there.
