[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can we not use the term "IEP kids"? So wrong on so many levels. My god. [/quote] I have referred to my child, whom trust me I love, respect, and value deeply, in these discussions as my “IEP child” to differentiate from my child without one. Not a big deal at all. Quit trying to turn everything into a PC issue. So ridiculous [/quote] I’m the parent ranting in this chain that my autistic child was passed over in this lottery, and I’ve referred to “my IEP kid” as well. [/quote] Seriously? You are both monsters. Ask your children when they are older how they felt about you labeling them this way. Jesus. [/quote] It's an entire threat about kids with IEPs, because it is clearly pertinent to the wider discussion. Seriously, find something else to be offended by. [/quote] My child has autism. She knows it and is a strong self-advocate about her needs. When she’s older I suspect she’ll appreciate that I fiercely fought for her to get the very best services throughout her childhood—through wide-ranging private therapies, as well as at school — yes, through an IEP. Hopefully she won’t regard her disability as a scarlet-letter. That’s what I wish for my child and all children with IEPs. But if that makes me a monster I’ll own it.[/quote]
