You sound like one of those people who thinks you can abuse or beat the disability out of someone. People like you and the poster above make life hell for our kids. The poster above thinks every kid with disabilities is like her kid. It's such a lie to imply that people with disabilities can JUST WORK HARDER to keep up. Such ignorance.

No. I am all for helping people with disabilities succeed to the best of their abilities. I am in favor of giving them a leg up in learning what is needed. I am not in favor of giving them a leg up when it comes to measuring achievement. When giving a test to evaluate the information learned, the standards should be consistent with other students.

We aren't trying to "give them a leg up". That's the crux of your ignorance. The accommodations level the playing field when you are stuck thinking it gives a child with disabilities an advantage over your precious snowflake. I assume you resent the kid who gets a higher sat score than yours because the kid with disabilities gets extended time. You assume that kid with disabilities is dumb and should score lower than your kid. Amirite?

I think this poster is a troll, trying to stir things up. Don’t bother.

I mean the PP who keeps saying we are trying to give our kids a leg up is the troll. I noticed 4 posits in a row after 1 am all essentially saying the same thing. Sock puppeting anyone?! LOL.

I’m one of at least two PPs saying this. Consistently posting to reply to your new posts does not mean I’m sock puppeting.

Me and the other PP have said repeatedly that if you insist on ONLY kids with disabilities getting various supports that would benefit ALL kids then yes you are trying to give them a leg up over others to equalize the results not simply trying to get them the supports they need to equally learn and compete with kids without disabilities

So 2 different PPs happened to reply after 1 am within minutes of each other, both disagreeing and saying kids with accommodations have advantages?! Ha

Guys please disengage the troll. I’ll ask Jeff to lock this thread.

Agreed, excluding needing adaptive equipment for vision, hearing, etc.
The majority of accommodations should be phased out over time, which can vary from 1-2 years to over a decade. If after 8 years a student still needs reduced questions or choices because of ADHD or ED, then something is wrong with the type of support they are receiving at home/school.

WTH? The disability doesn't go away. You are truly, sincerely clueless.

Are we talking about a wheelchair? Or dyslexia or ADHD? If the latter, the student should learn how to manage so that by the time they are in/graduate high school, they don't need the accomodations. So that they'll be ready to be an adult, who goes to college or gets a job without time and a half.

Is your goal for the student to live with their parents forever, unemployed and unemployable?

You seriously think kids can learn how to "manage" their disabilities. You are outrageous. Your Fox news dishonesty in implying that means that have to remain unemployed and unemployable shows who you are.

Op, why didn't you post this in the sns forum.

Do you think kids with disabilities can't learn how to manage their disabilities?

Their disabilities don't go away and God knows what you mean by managing them.

PP, what disabilities are you referring to? List them out.
