“You need to understand that kids with disabilities don’t do well in an inclusive environment after 3rd grade.”
“It doesn’t make sense to push them to do things we know they can’t.”
“It’s going to be really hard for your child to keep up with typical students. They are way much more advanced and that’s is going to frustrate and intimidate your child.”
“We know for a fact that children with disabilities present behavior issues when placed in the regular classroom. We cannot deny the fact that they are different and have different needs than their peers.”
“I am not going to lie to you. I don’t think this is possible.”
“He is going to be better with others like him. They love each other and they are always happy.”
And the last one is not a question from someone else but one you need to address yourself. “Are you willing to do your best?”
Happy back to school!
