[quote=Anonymous]Why does it have to be so hard?!? I have a child diagnosed with autism, who has a clear need... yet I have to pay an advocate BIG MONEY to get adequate services... not great, life changing, wonderful services. I'm talking basic services at a shitty school that we're being bused to. I know money is a big issue in the county. But lives are literally in the balance. This child could be a functioning member of society... but at every turn, I feel that MCPS is grinding this child into a self hating, future shut-in who will hate all of society. I am so bitter. I hate every single staff person at my child's school. I wish I could tell them all to fuck off... well, maybe one or two are ok. But I'm so angry. Every single misdirection they've thrown at me is costing money that I have to spend on an advocate. The school is cryptic, doesn't inform me of what is happening in the classroom. They collect data that is not shared until the meeting... I'm so so angry. I hide my anger well. But I can't believe what is happening to us here in this school system. And I'm most likely not going to file a state complaint. I can't afford to defend myself financially or emotionally against their lawyers. I have an autistic child at home that takes all I've got.
