[quote=Anonymous]I am on a team that screens for IEPs. I have no problem with parents bringing advocates or lawyers or tape recording or whatever they want to do. I will say this, though. The team is acting in the best interests of the child. Truly. It might be worth giving the group a chance to review the data without lawyers present. The conversation will be open and free-flowing, maybe more than it would be if there is a perception that the parents think the group won't be making decisions for the good of the child. I have not found that there are different outcomes because, for instance, Brian Gruber or any lawyer was there. The partnership between parents and school can be really healthy and helpful. Just come prepared and understand your child's rights. And if you have reason to not trust, then by all means lawyer up if you want. Just one opinion here though...[/quote]
