Now, referring to the first paragraph. You didn't have 'medical' training to give your child their medicine, so why do the schools feel they must have. You don't stop the medicine without consulting your Doctor, so what gives the school the right to do this. You also are a professional, a professional parent. A further dilemma.
Schools are very 'hot' at the moment on inclusion in mainstream.
Your child cannot function in mainstream school without the prescribed medicine. At home, you, the parent remind your child to take their medicine. Although I am personally talking about an ADHD child, and Ritalin , and the obvious problem short term memory causes with regards to the onus being on the child to remember the medication, this problem with medication crosses all walks of life and disabilities.
