[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with the parents who think it's a good idea to tell the team - both for medical reasons and for academic and behavioral reasons.  However, I don't get what OP is all upset about.  The school didn't require her to tell, she just blurted it out because she didn't like being perceived as not a team player, which, if she was withholding information is certainly not an unreasonable perspective on the part of the team.

I've been in that position before and it's not pleasant. Nobody wants to be a b@tch but some things are none of their business.  I would say this is especially true for women who learn that they are supposed to get along and cooperate.  These are people you have to deal with after the moment (of the IEP or whatever) so you can't come out and say what you really want but if you do speak your mind then you're a troublemaker.  The answers to "innocent" questions accumulate over time and your teachers/therapists make judgments about you and your kid, some of which get into your records.  [/quote]
