[QUOTE="japartain1958, post: 519985, member: 14301"] Hi TeDo. Thank you for the welcome and information. My difficult child has spastic quad cp, dystonia, complex partial epilepsy and scoliosis. He is confined to a wheelchair. Very dependent for everything. Improving slowly after having a Baclofen pump placed in June of 2010. This all started with a very bad (I think) IEP for me at the beginning of the year. New teacher never had to deal with before. No notice of change. Did not inform me the speech therapist would not be there and this is the year we are trying to find some form of communication for Joseph to use. I though everyone should be there. Teacher, Occupational Therapist (OT),pt and speech. His aid was there, but she was the first one to speak ( the teacher said she had something important she wanted to talk about). She informed me that my difficult child must have something medically wrong with him because sometime he smells like he pooped, but he did not poop (he is in a diaper). The Occupational Therapist (OT) ask if she had ever had gas. Funny, but not funny. I could not even think straight after that. My son was so upset that they were talking about his bathroom habits he started crying and had a melt down. This is also the first time they insisted my difficult child be at the meeting too. He is to young to understand all this. I am asking for another meeting before the end of the year. I just need help with information on how to proceed. Should I get him an advocate. As far as school goes he is in the Special Education class room all day except for specials. Gym, music and library he is with his regular 4th grade class. [/QUOTE]
