[QUOTE="emotionallybankrupt, post: 313371, member: 8226"] I am a teacher, also involved in the special education process from the standpoint of a parent. In my personal opinion, many of the questions asked about the pregnancy and early years are in the "none of their business" category and have absolutely no bearing on the appropriate course of action in educating your child. Teachers simply operate based on the current skill levels and the learning style of the child. Even in the early intervention process for my younger child (language impairment), as I would ask questions of the therapists regarding "what is this" and "what caused this," their very sensible responses were that it really did not matter as to the course of action that needed to be taken. I have never seen anything inappropriate happen regarding confidential information at my own school, but I know it does happen in other places. "There is no such thing as a confidential file" is a very important line I have always remembered from one of the many books I have read. That file could eventually land anywhere in the course of your child's lifetime, and personally, I would try to keep the information in it limited to information that is truly relevant and helpful to the educational process.
