And, if they're unhappy with the status quo, there must surely be specific, identifiable reasons. My interest in getting to the real bottom line of that dissatisfaction remains. I see it as a matter of survival for my children. The paper listed fl. Dyslexic kids can go labeled as LD for 6 years here yet never receive reading programs geared to help them, IEP's aren't followed, services aren't provided, money comes in but special needs parents have no idea where it goes, we have to beg for everything our child gets.
Parents seem to be viewed as a bother more than partner.
All children need an education, but this is extremely crucial for many special needs children. They are lost for life. So, yes, I am dissatisfied, I am distrustful. In general, I feel the education industry is self serving and self interested. Generating an industry in which they are indispensable.
