Over on Soapywater, Molly_g continues to report about her efforts to seek appropriate services for her young son. A couple of weeks ago, I noted that she was getting the all-too-common run-around: Wait a while. Well, it sounds like things are happening, but the progress is painstakingly slow, at least in my eyes.
Molly_g has posts about
- A good day (that includes a head injury!),
- Referrals for psychiatric evaluation,
- Frustrations,
- Misplaced emphasis on negative rather than positive behavior, and
- Evaluation results.
The stories sound all too familiar. If you teach students with disabilities, Molly_g provides a valuable peek into the perspective of parents. If you teach people who will teach students with disabilities, her observations should be required reading for them. Without a doubt, a reader can spin Molly_g’s reports lots of ways, and I’m obviously giving my own take, but one cannot overlook their potential for helping educators gain perspective.
