[quote=Anonymous]Why the strong reaction of some PPs that this kind of discrimination cannot be happening? Yes you may have gotten pushback during the IEP process for your non-Asian kid, but that doesn't mean there isn't a particular type of discrimination at play for older Asian kids trying to get IEPs. By definition, if you are not a parent of such a kid you don't know what these parents and kids are experiencing. I generally find the parents on this forum (the SN board, not DCUM generally, obviously) to be very sensitive to issues of discrimination and people wrongly assuming they know what we are experiencing with our kids. So we should be sensitive to avoiding a knee-jerk reaction of "I feel confident that discrimination against XYZ group doesn't happen b/c I haven't experienced it first-hand."[/quote]
