[QUOTE="DDD, post: 106926, member: 35"] Sorry, Shari. I misunderstood and thought it was a school PE teacher that you were referring to in your post. Truthfully, I am a little jaded after so many years of dealing with people who didn't (and often, wouldn't) understand exceptionalities. One thing I am positive about is that regardless of IQ, the sense of selfworth is HUGELY important to each child. Being expected to perform at a level that is not attainable is, to me, tanamount to child abuse. The problem is that the "uniformed" don't accept that capabilities differ. I will cross some body parts that your choice is the best for your child. It is not easy being a parent to a special child. DDD [/QUOTE]
