[QUOTE="buddy, post: 533039, member: 12886"] I'm not so confused about the meaning of borderline, I think you get that...what is confusing to me (MHO) is that the 4th percentile would in any way be considered borderline. That said....sadly this is for some disabilities the cut off for qualification for programs etc. (in some areas of language testing here kids need to be at or below the FOURTH percentile to qualify for therapy)....can you imagine being the parent of the kid we had to tell, sorry they score in the 5th and 6th percentiles.....can't service them or w e will get in trouble, it was crazy making! Let's face it.... if there is that big of a discrepancy then it is a big problem. No surprise to you, I am sorry that must be so frustrating and then to have her IEP pretty much ignored??? Poor kid. But the bright side in this is there are some specific things to target and address. Anyway you can get private speech/language therapy? I worked on trying to get vision therapy for my son and that was expensive and not very available at the time. Maybe it has changed? But many of the things that are worked on can be worked on through Occupational Therapist (OT). Would that be an option? [/QUOTE]
