[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You realize that students with LDs or ADHD can be very smart, right? [/quote]

Sure.  I'm questioning the need for extra time in some cases.[/quote]

It's not your job to question it, and frankly, it's none of your business.[/quote]

It is my business when my DC comes home and wonders why some kids, who act/appear/perform similarly to my DC, get extra time. One way or another, they know who the kids are that need extra time, and it's on me to explain why that's fair.[/quote]

"Fair" does not mean "equal".  My kindergartener understands something so basic.  Not sure why it's so difficult for you and your children to understand.  Explain to them that some people need accommodations that others don't, and unless the children in question choose to share the reasons they need accommodations, IT'S NOT THEIR BUSINESS.

Or as my own mother used to say, "Worry about yourself, not everyone else."

It's really not that hard.[/quote]
