[quote=Anonymous]Good Lord, SO MANY KIDS HAVE EXTRA TIME. Teachers have gotten used to it, and many have developed their own systems to administer longer tests for these students. My severely low-processing kid (autism and ADHD) had double time in high school. He still has double time in college, which is insane. He's doing his best to not use it all, because he knows workplaces might not accommodate him in that way. My other kid has a medical 504 and is allowed frequent breaks and 50% extra time, which she uses on days when she has flares from her auto-immune disease. Your kid should get over himself and advocate for his needs. It's a valuable lesson he needs to learn.[/quote]
