[quote=Anonymous]"It’s so obvious to me that most of the posters in this thread defending their bigoted takes have no experience about what it means to be disabled." I have ADD and so do my two DCs, and I don't think that extra time is fair. But it might be a good idea to remove time constraints for everyone from SATs and APs so that we just focus on whether students know the material. What's not fair is that my kids were diagnosed and I was able to secure accommodations for them, while other kids (like me when I was their age) don't get diagnosed and therefore don't get extra time. It also seems like "more time" is the solution for all sorts of disabilities whether it's helpful or not. That to me is the marker of a bad solution. [/quote]
