[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Curious how then transition to life works out when suddenly there are no accommodations? DH and I are really struggling with this question, so no offense intended. [/quote] There are accommodations. You don't have timed 60 minute tests in the real world. You can stay late if you need to finish something - or come in early. You can get up and walk around every so often in a real job, go to the bathroom, drink some water, have a snack..... You can use word prediction software and spell check. You can have someone read over your work. You can have a chair that helps you sit for longer periods of time, you can even sit on a yoga ball if you want. You can use a calculator in the real world. In the real world, your assets are the reason you have a job, you don't have to be good at everything. You can use text to speech software. You can go for a walk over the lunch hour. You can bring your own food and eat it when you want. [/quote]
