[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1. As others have stated-you are speaking from a place of privilege as other countries don’t have nearly the amount of support for special needs kids. I work in the special needs community and you literally have no idea if you think other countries have better special ed services.

2. Moving permanently to another country gets sensationalized and it is EXTREMELY difficult. You cannot just decide to move to another country. If you think the US immigration laws are tough-you have clearly never looked into other countries rules about it.

3. Moving abroad is insanely difficult for families without a child with special needs-it will likely be close to impossible with one. Other countries do not willingly take on a drain on resources.

4. Being sponsored by a job will likely be your only chance. [/quote]

I taught in a public school with a program for HFA. Every year, we got at least one student whose family had been expat and then moved back to the states within a year after they got diagnosed.

I’ve been looking at options for my 19 year old. It’s grim.[/quote]
