I wanted to check in and tell you that you need to fight for your kid! YOU know him! YOU know what he needs. Don't let some school dictate what or who your son is. You sound like you're doing a great job and I want to encourage you to keep fighting for what is best for him.andrea frazerhttp://www.lifehappins.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2746662065427870362.post-76094826367094778552011-03-04T15:17:35.699-08:002011-03-04T15:17:35.699-08:00Thank you so much Laura for your encouragement.

The only service on his IEP is 30 minutes social group 1 time per week. He is in the middle of a re-evaluation and they are dragging their feet. I know what program I would like him in, but we will see. I know there are AWESOME teachers out there....I just have to get him to the right place. Thanks again it means so much.Carissa Dahlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09367010640908780748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2746662065427870362.post-57523955354657885132011-03-04T12:11:32.244-08:002011-03-04T12:11:32.244-08:00First of all, I just want to thank you from the bo...First of all, I just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for being such a wonderful mom to Luke. It makes me so happy that he is in a home where he is loved, and his whole being is taken care of. <br /><br />Where is he going to school? Is it a learning support situation where he is mainstreamed out?<br /><br />It seems to me that the teacher is maybe having problems with proper social behavior herself making an "example" of Luke in front of the class. <br /><br />There are always other schools with other programs who have wonderful teachers and support staff and they WILL meet his needs. <br /><br />School can be a terrible place for anyone, regardless if they have special needs or not. Luke has such a strong spirit and bright personality. I'm certain once his school situation regulates itself, he will make many friends.<br /><br />Thank you for loving him enough to get him the services he needs. It's gonna be a struggle. Being a great parent of a child that has special needs requires tenacity. You're doing a great job so far.Lauranoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2746662065427870362.post-9519398894955598932011-03-03T20:18:54.855-08:002011-03-03T20:18:54.855-08:00Thank you for your prayers.
