[quote=Anonymous]OK, you hid the ball OP. Your DC is at an independent school. The answer is easy, find another school. They have no obligation to do anything. And you are at this point in such an antagonistic relationship with them, that they are not going to work with you. So why not find a school with which you can work? Many of us with kids in privates who have SN have transferred. Count me among those turned off by your language. You have a specific problem -- you feel your DC needs certain accommodations but the school is requiring some kind of diagnosis first. Is that right? I have no idea if your perception of the problem is right or wrong, but if you rail against the system, when "the system" is one school, you aren't going to help your DC. If you post a bit more about your DC you might get some suggestions of mainstream schools that will accommodate. My children go to a school that doesn't require a diagnosis if a kid needs to keyboard. Frankly, thats such a common thing for schools to provide to kids with handwriting issues, I have to wonder if your DS's school is resisting because they see you as a PITA.[/quote]
