[QUOTE="witzend, post: 199519, member: 99"] Is there an IEP? Did mom try to get an IEP and the school ignored her? Does the kid take his medications? Does the school "forget" to give the kid his medications and feel it's the duty of a 7 year old to remember? If the kid with the seizure disorder should be medicated and is not, it's the fault of the person not medicating them. If the kid with the BiPolar (BP) should have special aids and medications and is not, it's the fault of the person/entity who is not meeting needs and medicating. So, if the BiPolar (BP) kid should have an aid but they haven't given one or given a bad one, should be on medications but the school is too busy to give them, should have a teacher watching for signs of a meltdown and she's over worked with too many kids in the class, that's the school's fault and the mom and child should sue the school for neglecting the child's known needs. Sorry all. But I have to interject here that if we want all of these things in schools, someone is going to have to pay more taxes. I know most school funding is on a local level, but there is national funding that can be used to meet needs that allow the local funding to go further. I'm pretty sure that it's not most of us who need to pay more taxes. I'm also pretty sure that I don't know a lot of people who benefitted from tax cuts. [/QUOTE]
