[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I"m the poster you are quoting and I am doing some advocacy work and agree, should do more. [b]But it's hard to find time with a career, kids [/b]and "afterschooling" a SN child.[/quote]

Sorry but this is a cop out, and it's the same one that I hear from everyone everywhere in Arlington about how they're too busy and blah blah blah.  I don't know the extent of your particular child's needs, PP, but I'm irritated that seeing this time and again.  If an issue is important, you find the time.  You stay up late, you find a sitter, you inconvenience your family to sit on a committee for a year.  You watch the SB meeting instead of tv after your kids go to bed so that you can email the Board afterward if you want to.  Reach out via FB or your PTA to find the parents who are super active and get their guidance. It sucks, but we're all busy.  Things don't change if we don't get involved locally or nationally.

Yes, this 1000 times. If I can find the time, so can you. It's about priorities. My "hobby" is this. My only hobby, because it's that important. [/quote]
