[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What’s next, you demand the schools change the name and spend thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours reprinting reports and anything with the phrase on it?

Who will be expected to do that? Teachers, admin? Will it take additional time from their day or will they hire new teachers to compensate?

If you’re reprinting an old report will someone be offended if the phrase appears and chastise you for it?

Do you expect them to rename special education teachers and change all the university level curriculum as well?

Is this really so important to you that you think the time and money that could otherwise be used by a child with special needs is better spent canceling the phrase “special needs”?[/quote]

Relax, people should be able to freely discuss their opinions and yes feel free to share all your questions - but it's exactly that personality that is living in the past, wake up. There's another thread just below this one asking if SPED should no longer be used...it's a terrible term and no one should feel like they have to accept it in their daily lives either...[/quote]
