[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son was put in a care taking role for another student. Without my knowledge the SN parent had requested that our sons be in the same class - year after year. So the teachers - year and year, I think, relied very heavily on my son to look after this boy. One academic year I wouldn't have given it much thought, but when I found out it had been years of elementary school, I was very unhappy.[/quote]

How could you be oblivious to this for years?[/quote]

We were new to the area and this is a common practice.[/quote]

I'm OP and agree with the PP that this is a pretty common practice. I get 4-5 requests a year (exclusively from parents of girls with SN) to seat/group two students together as a social-emotional support that will ease school anxiety and thus aid instruction. It has never backfired for me before. However, after this situation and the anecdotes shared by PPs, I will be very hesitant to agree to in in the future.[/quote]

Perhaps talking to the parents of the other child should be something you should do before agreeing.[/quote]
