[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]OP, I share your concerns. My IEP kid is now in 7th grade and I feel HS and college looming ahead. I have looked and there are a lot of options for kids now. Colleges are getting the message that kids are coming with IEPs and starting programs to work with them and provide support. My current obsession is the DeSousa-Brent Scholars at St. Mary's in Maryland.[/quote]

When is your child supposed to learn that life, employers and the real world isn't going to provide accommodations?  At what point do all of these accommodations hinder the child instead of help prepare the child for life ahead?[/quote]

Please go back to general parenting.  There are plenty of jobs out there that do not simulate learning in a classroom.  I know several dyslexics who got accommodations and now have successful high powered careers.  They wouldn't be there if they hadn't gotten through school.

I'm really tired of snots like you who know nothing about this issues coming here and sputtering your nonsense.[/quote]
