[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For his 504 evaluation. It is called the Conners. The survey asked questions like "have you ever sexually forced someone to do something" or "have you used a weapon against someone?" I am livid. Do I complain to the principal? DC is 9, third grade.[/quote]

I can definitely understand why OP is upset. Third grade is very young. I don't think I understood what it means to force someone to do something sexually at that age. That is a big topic to throw on a survey without knowledge of the parents. And I could see some innocent kid saying "yes" because they made their Barbies have sex or something. I would not like this at all.[/quote]

This test is administered to kids starting from 6 years old. It's one of a long list of questions. I can guarantee that no one has ever been traumatized by answering this question. If the kid doesn't understand the question, a simple very basic explanation about touching private parts ensues, that's all. Then everyone moves on. Surely you've told your kid not to touch other kids' private parts, or to tell you if someone else tries to touch his or hers? Basic parenting 101.
