[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Um, I don't know because I've never had a bad experience though I have clicked better with some than others. Are you just unlucky or am I lucky? Who knows.

I've been at this quite awhile. I've dealt with a lot of "professionals" over the past 15 years. And yes, many of them have very low expectations of SN kids. [/quote]

She's not alone. Most parents become experts of their kids, and understanding of others' needs as well. Which means that unless the SPED has LDs herself, or SN kids, she will perhaps not have the best approach. And then, sometimes SPED teachers with SN kids want to lump every kid they meet with their own kids! So there's never a set rule, except this one:
Many sped teachers don't get it.[/quote]

That's one option.

Another is that parents themselves don't get it -- they believe their particular snowfllake is the center of the universe.

Sorry, that's not how schools work.

If you don't like it, and you believe you know it all, simply go the homeschooling route.[/quote]
