[QUOTE="aslmovies, post: 116074, member: 4502"] Swilliamson, you are welcome. I hope I have helped a little. Martie....I agree that they are supposed to, but the reason I suggested that swilliamson get a diagnosis from an md is because some insurances wont allow you to go to a specialist unless you have a referral and if you have a diagnosis from a md then the schools have more of an obligation not only to put your child in the system, but it gives you more leverage. jen3-you are very lucky and consider yourself blessed. I have dealt with schools that will fight you tooth and nail. They refuse to do testing for one reason or another. Some schools are very accomodating and sincerely care. The more you know about your rights, the better off you are. Especially if you have a special needs child in even the smallest approximation. Some schools use the ignorance of the parents and the lack of willingness to learn about their rights to avoid all kinds of things. LEARN, READ, STUDY AND MOST IMPORTANTLY ALWAYS PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT THEY SAY. Dont let the schools bully or intimidate you. When I get :censored: about any of my kids I tell them the same thing: "I have one shot at raising my kids right and if I screw up, I don't pay the price for it, they do!!!!" [/QUOTE]
