[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reading this thread makes me roll my eyes out of my head. The school is not your enemy. Believe it or not, they want to help your kid. [/quote]

Have been on both sides for many years on each. The majority of people have decent intentions, but they also have to keep a job and are torn. There are also true gems. Also though, there are absolutely people in the system who hide behind the "I help people with disabilities so I must be a saint" mask and are downright corrupt/unethical. It is sometimes that the person is just emotionally immature, but also there are definitely egomaniacs in the system who abuse what little power they have until they mess with the wrong parent. Among the higher positions there are too many who will lie or gaslight and the story changes when you challenge them enough. You must be an informed consumer and not trust that everyone has the best intentions. You treat them as innocent until proven guilty, but don't be naïve, especially when it comes to admin and above.[/quote]
You are describing the special education coordinator at our elementary school!  
The damage this person did to many children is beyond words.  
Denied service to kids who were clearly in need.
The downstream mental health support the parents needed to provide in order to "fix" this should be a class action.[/quote]
