[quote=Anonymous]I am a teacher and the "developmental" suggestion is real, but it does mean your child is behind and often incapable of learning the material or skill. Hopefully with maturity it will become a skill they can handle. Would you prefer we say "your kid is way dumber than the rest of the class and doesn't have a shot?" I think it's interesting that you believe the teacher doesn't know what to do with your kid. We know what to do but can't rearrange the whole curriculum just for one student. The others are moving along well and all is great, the whole class can't suffer for one developmentally delayed child. Maybe the school isn't the right fit for your child. There are many schools built to accommodate this type of learner.[/quote]
