[QUOTE="Ropefree, post: 249895, member: 6271"] Through my decade plus through the no can do relationship with schools who say they can not implement the services known to support the learning needs of my child (high IQ with a classic issue with writing, organization, focus) once the medications and behavior issues that teachers disliked in the classroom were not their problem the condition I call "Teaching to Fail" was called "his problem". What needs to occur is for childrens education needs to be supplied. PERIOD. When a child can attend regular ed classes, or not, in every school day a child with a learning issue needs to have the adjunct services,too, with a bona fid speciallist who DOES KNOW and CAN DO as needed with them. Not "just" in a large class where the teacher "doesn't know". These kids especially in school, are aware that they are not "getting it" and as they are children they will "do childish things": they want to be done, so they say they have done it. All kids want to have the sence that they are able and deserving of praise. When they are told they "should be" able to track and do as told, but they have not REALLY learned the habits and the means to do so, the adults are letting them down. The teachers will say "we can not do it for them". Yet it is teaching to learn and succeed that does, ulitmately "do it for them". The style and the childed based need meeting is the key. [/QUOTE]
