[QUOTE="slsh, post: 129301, member: 8"] Ack - Kathy and Sharon, and any other teachers, my apologies. Didn't mean to step in it there. I shouldn't have generalized across the board. What I should have said is that based on my experience only, teachers get defensive when *I* bring up the IEP goals/accommodation outside of the actual IEP mtg and so this teacher's response to a child doesn't surprise me at all. I think there may also be a difference between tolerance in elementary school versus HS. I would guess HS teachers have to be more ... open to discussion from their students since they're dealing with teens. Does that make sense? And that's a guess on my part since we have yet to make it to anything approaching a reg. ed. HS setting in this family. I do know that in the elementary and jr. high setting here, what teachers say goes and any feedback from the kids is considered disrespectful and back talk. Again, my apologies. I'm sure there are reasonable people out there. [/QUOTE]
