Wow! You have educated me on so much! My son is 4 and does 2 days a week in the special needs classroom and has an IEP but I had no clue what to discuss or request. He will be entering Kindergarten next school term and I want to be sure he gets everything he may need to set him up for success. I was so lost as to what things I could ask for and your video truly mapped it out clearly and respectfully. Thank you 1 million times because this truly gives me an outline of how I need to present what my son needs to the team and what things I need to stand my ground on for him. I’m so glad I found your page and I’m so looking forward to seeing more from this platform.

Thank you for the videos!

[@AyoSaz]

Thank you for sharing this information. It’s been stressful trying to gather information for our first iep but you have given me confidence to request what I feel my daughter will need. Thank you.

[@Queeninabubble]

Thank you , they denied me a one to one aide and we have shared aide but this year I need one to one aide this year I’m taking it to Mediation and Due process !!! I will go to Trenton all year if I need to

[@Britishrose1990]

I’m so glad I found this video‼️ It helped so much 😊. Thanks for sharing!!

I'm an American parent raising children in Catalunya, Spain. As complicated as this all sounds I'm so envious of the legal rights American parents have in American schools!

Thank you for the reminder!!!!

@@AutismLive My ten-year-old twins have diagnoses but they still make my child with ASD play dodgeball during PE and lower the grades of my child with ADHD for drawing in the margins of his work. It's not just another country, it's an alternate universe! Thanks for all you do.

[@AutismLive]

@@greeneileen I can't imagine how frustrating that must be!

[@tiffanydove7390]

Love this video great info. My son is smart says he's bored at school and having the social issues since he's been in school. School is trying to label him as a bad kid I truly eleive he has a sensory issues going on. Ive been trying to get him assessed. We have to fight for our kids.

[@AutismLive]

Yes! But they are worth it.

[@mariavallin2752]

Thank you so much for this video.

[@betsypalma532]

Betsy! I am so happy to hear that!

[@franciscommontielrodriguez707]

Thank you!

How long should my child be in school before the school can accurately assess and create a IEP that protects the what ifs rather than having to add stuff in later and fight

[@TheGoodBrothers-]

Great information ℹ️

[@QueenJessi818]

My son is 3 and we have an iep meeting today. Do I ask for seat accommodations and longer time testing now? It does feel weird doing this in preschool. Ty!

[@user-oi6fi4hr7j]

I need help. No matter what I do no one will help me. My son had a stroke when he was four. Because of his learning difficulties has constantly been abused at school. He has had binders thrown at his head, refused his inhaler and ended up in the hospital because the nurse at school said he was faking it. Please please please help me. Please

[@QwertyS3]

Nasty, how is a child faking when he was sent to the HOSPITAL because he's "Faking" people usually accuse a disabled person of faking as an excuse to oppress and bully real disabled people, I've seen this time and time again it's pure ableism disguised as an act of righteousness. I suggest you sue the school district this is ridiculous as long as you kid has a DIAGNOSIS that can't be faked he should be getting special education help

[@yam3108]

This makes me so furious. I agree with the answer above, you need to take serious action against the school district. Seek legal help immediately this is unethical.

[@AirstrikeBoy]

Was this all from the same school?

[@RoriRebel]

Hire an advocate or an attorney. There should be some agencies around you, please Google them. Best of luck

[@yesseniamolina4553]

I have an important question., what if your child’s child study team counselor is rude and disrespectful to you ( the parent) can I ask to have the cst counselor changed ??

[@AutismLive]

Great question! I would start by always requesting to record the meeting and then noting the time code when they are rude and disrespectful, then I would email the principal and the head of special ed with a nice note saying something along the lines of "I expect for us all to remain professional during IEP meetings. I would like to call your attention to time code 4:53 during the IEP when the study team counselor can clearly be heard engaging is rude and disrespectful speech. It is my expectation that this will not happen again and or that we will be assigned a new team counselor. I appreciate your professionalism in handling this matter and insuring that this individual is not speaking and behaving in this manner with my child."
