[quote=Anonymous]Our first meeting wasn't contentious.  It was the second, third and fourth that were.  They wanted to cut services for a child who was so very obviously delayed even to an untrained eye.  Once we learned what was available and had private evals done that demonstrated (even to me) how behind our child was did things get problematic.  And they still wanted to cut services.  Seriously!

I don't think you need to bring anyone, but my best advice is to NOT sign the document then and there.  Take it home an reread it.  We had some goals that were basically the same - that wasn't the intent but as I re read it, it sounded like that.  So we tweaked them a bit.  Of course you can make changes later, but it is much harder than that.  I also liked to pay attention to how they measure progress (charts lists or just notes.)  It is hard to pay attention to all of this in a 1 or 2 hours meeting.

We moved to a better school district and it has been completely different!

And we do have social skills in our IEP.[/quote]
