[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You realize that students with LDs or ADHD can be very smart, right? [/quote] Sure. I'm questioning the need for extra time in some cases.[/quote] Well stop questioning. Are you seriously jealous that someone's kid has an LD? Do you seriously think people are gaming the system, pretending to be LD? You may as well complain about handicapped parking preference while you are at it. Not sure if all parents of LD kids are the same as I am, but I can tell you I would trade anything to not have my kid suffer the way he does. The unbelievable amount of time and emotional support it takes from everyone in the family, plus the incredible expense and time of professional support...it is all so draining and it is a huge part of our lives every day. So, please, please get over yourself and be grateful that your DC is healthy.[/quote] Np here. Yes, this is exactly what I think. Especially when the "LD" is uncovered for the first time in a teen's academic career right Newfie the PSAT and other high-stakes tests that win you awards, placement, and college entrance. How was this "LD" really not uncovered before 10th grade? [/quote]
