[QUOTE="KTMom91, post: 427472, member: 4040"] Those double standards have been an ongoing concern of mine, and is one reason I did not want Miss KT on an IEP or 504 in school. When employers look at you, they want to know if you can do the job or not. Period. I was afraid that too much modifying would give her even more of a sense of entitlement, and then she would expect everyone else to make the job easier, lighter, or whatever. And since she presents very well, an uninformed person can't tell she has various issues. Once she settles in, however... What really bugs me as a sub is the ones who are proud that they don't have to do as much work as their classmates, and they insist on telling me and the rest of the class every flippin' time we get another book out. There's a huge difference between a factual statement and a ha ha ha, and the factual statements are fine. I just tell the kids, "That's fine, you know what you need to do then," and they go back to their desks happy that they have been trusted to do what they need to do. Same thing with RSP..."That's fine, you know what time you need to be there." Makes me wonder if the ones who seem to be bragging are the ones who really don't need the modifications. [/QUOTE]
