To tell you the truth I don't even remember signing anything they just put my daughter on it. I feel its a cop out on the educators part when teaching my 13 year old daughter. She basically does less work and easier exercises. Now I feel she is very far behind in expressive and written language. The educators like to accomodate these coded children instead of educate them. I am pretty tired of IEP. Doesn't help my daughter one bit. I feel that the school system worries that if the child is sent to a special classroom for special instruction that the other students will tease them. I feel that either way they will get teased due to lack of ability to perform verbal communication. So why not set up a classroom for special needs children that are mildly moderately delayed and get them tuned up so the next year they can be in a regular classroom. Integrated classrooms are no help when there in no help available nor are IEP.

I am not sure which state you live in, but see if you can get services to include "wrap around". They will provide a TSS (therapeutic staff support) to assist in school as well as out of school, if you are experiencing any problems at home, as well as a mobile therapist to assist with "community" based activities to help transition in the "real world". I am not sure what type of "developmental delay" is related to your particular situation, but it is so very sad to hear that you feel you are sliding through the cracks. My child has a moderate to severe delay due to Asperger/Autism so I have been "bucking" the system for 10 years now (he will be 14 soon) and he has totally failed the last 2-3 grade levels. I am very worried for his future and even more for the mild to moderate delayed children - who OBVIOUSLY this system was designed to help, not cower to. Hope you get some good feedback and support!
