[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mainstreaming kids who are struggling to stay with the class is a step up for them.  Mainstreaming the AAP kids is a step down (academically speaking).

Step up for one group.  Step down for the other.  Not the same.

Bad argument, PP.[/quote]

If that's seriously your argument, how do you justify the bright Gen Ed kids having to "step down" by being in class with the kids who are being "stepped up"?  So its ok for them to have to accomodate students who need a slower pace, but apparently unacceptable for AAP kids to have to do the same?  Thank you for so perfectly illustrating the incredibly entitled AAP parent mentality.   What's fine for all the other kids just isn't going to fly for your special snowflakes.  Got it.[/quote]

I don't.  I have a gen ed kid too and I know there are many who could and should be given the same curriculum.  BUT, the argument that the PP was making i.e. special ed kids get mainstreamed, so AAP kids should be mainstreamed, just doesn't make any sense.  They are two different groups and the reason for "mainstreaming" one does not apply to the other.
