[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I knew my kids were smart, so just got them in AAP which was right for them. [/quote] This is what it boils down to. People want to think their kids are smart - and it's only the smart kids that go to AAP. "Regular" or "dumb" kids stay in general ed. You can definitely tell who the parents are that are hell bent on getting their kid into AAP with out regard to whether it's the best placement for them. They just want everyone to know their kids are 'smart'. I say this as a parent with a 'regular' kid, a kid that is truly gifted and with LD, and one 'regular' kid with LD. [/quote]
