[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a really hard one because while I applaud you OP for advocating on your child's behalf relative to the 504, in LIFE he won't get that opportunity. What does it teach him that he doesn't have to follow directions and gets a redo?

If a client asks me to do Y, and I do YZ or X, I cannot bill for it, damage the relationship, and/or get fired. I guess the hope is that those skills and life experiences are taught by the time the kid gets into the real world, but I just wonder where that balance is best.

To the college professor, good on you for sticking to your guns.[/quote]

In real life the Teacher has to follows the rules and directions and abide by the 504 Plan or the IEP. These plans are not written so that the child does not have to follow rules or directions but to help a child learn to follow rules and directions by teaching the child in a manner that supports the child. Many times this includes things like the Teacher is required to review the directions with the child individually.

So the Teacher is partially at fault for not following the rules and directions. [/quote]
