[QUOTE="Martie, post: 53160, member: 284"] Very few kids who are not severely disabled actually stay in school until their 22nd birthdays. However, when your difficult child gets to h.s., you should strongly resist that she is "in the class of 2013" or whatever. SD work on Learning Disability (LD) kids to make them want to graduate with their entry class. MANY Learning Disability (LD) studetns could benefit from 5 years in h.s., but if SDs can get these kids to "want" to graduate or get them to drop out, their financial responsibility ends. easy child has a close friend who was in her class and is now two years behind her original class--due to 5 years in high school and one year p.g. The friend is doing well in college with some supports. I have known this person since she was 6 and her progress is remarkable. There is no stigma in graduating at 23 or 24---Time magazine warns us all that 4 year degrees take 6!
