[quote=Anonymous]On here...sorry...I am a PP.. When I posted last year, we were still in public trying to get an IEP. Instead, we went to a small private where DC gets some additional downtime, recess, and organizational help. The school puts the onus on the child to remember assignments, they want the kids to self-advocate. It can be frustrating at times because they act like they don't understand 2e at all, we've had to push for meetings to show that truly, our bright DC doesn't understand the instructions or forgets. That said, I do believe it is important to somehow get the kids to learn to compensate for their deficiencies. I am 2e also and so I went through school, college and grad school without supports (other than incredibly caring friends who stepped in and helped me with my "simple" struggles). In any event, our DC is thriving and the whole family is learning better executive function skills! We think we will go private for HS too - the difference in our child in a small, nurturing environment has been astounding. Finally, we have a happy kid! [/quote]
