[quote=Anonymous]Don’t bring snacks. Dress as close to business casual as you can without sacrificing comfort. Don’t worry about hiding your tummy. Don’t worry about looking firm, serious, etc. BE firm about what services you think your child needs. Everything they “offer” you can be negotiated. Know what you want and why. Reiterate what you want and why as often as needed. Try not to stress too much — this is only the first draft of the IEP. If your child’s needs are severe, you will have many more to come. You can hire an advocate or lawyer for the next one if you feel like the district is being unreasonable. [/quote]
