[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It seems to be "the thing" now, that when you see an UMC kid who is a mediocre student, they will almost invariably have a diagnosis of having a learning disability or ADHD. Is there no such thing as a C student any more? Whatever happened to the idea that some kids just aren't great at school? Is that notion only acceptable for working class kids but not affluent kids? [/quote] Are you a teacher? If you are I know right now you are a crappy teacher. I have a bright dc with lds. Dc fought to get in some advanced classes (honors and aps) The wost teachers were mediocre students themselves and resent the accommodations my dc's iep provide. You make it sound like this is the norm - it isn't. Most parents, even umcs, don't bother getting their kids tested. There is too much shame even in 2019. I hear and see many parents who refuse to do anything for kids who clearly have learning issues. [/quote]
