[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I already answered this, you just don't agree, which is fine. Also, because based on my experience, it is recommended by the neuropsych. You don't just get one eval that is accurate and up to date for the remainder of a child's life.

And your experience should be everyone’s? Got it.[/quote]

Can I guarantee that their neuropsych was not an outlier or negligent.  No.   However, as to what standard practice is, google is your friend.  [/quote]

I don’t use Google for medical assessments and I don’t presume my experience is representative of everyone’s, and that doctors that may do something different than my individual experience are “outliers” or “negligent,” so unfortunately I will just have to remain unconvinced by you. I also read the actual words of the article, not something I’m super positive must be true in my own head even if not referenced at all in the article. [/quote]

The parents used a neuropsych evaluator who was recommended by the school. I mean, there was already a bit of a conflict of interest there (in favor of the school) and the evaluator told the parents that he should remain in St Anne's with supports. And, TBH, I'm going to take the word of the trained pediatric psychological evaluator over the word of the lower school headmaster who is just looking to make his own life easier and maybe open up a seat for a wealthy family.

I don't trust administrators, and neither should you. They have their own cut-throat set of incentives that often do not align with what's best for your family. [/quote]

Okay? So the parents did exactly what the school asked of them. I have no idea what your point is. [/quote]
