[QUOTE="wakeupcall, post: 231202, member: 2287"] Many communities are so small there aren't any advocates. In the small town we lived in when difficult child was in kindergarten and first grade, there wasn't such a thing. We had to resort to good old fashioned blackmail in that if you do not TEACH my child so that he can learn, that is against the law and we will file a law suit. Period. Hate to get nasty, but sometimes the school thinks they are gods and it really ticks me off. These children DO have disabilities and shouldn't be put into this kind of a predicament. We learned SO much along the way. The school doesn't want anyone to make any waves and they are often terrified of the school board itself. We started with the department head of the special education department. They took notice then. [/QUOTE]
