Kudos to the school system. Facts over feelings. Not petty. The child deserves a full evaluation. Fighting against ignorance.the school psychologist knows that, in order to do what’s right, they need to fight for this child. Administrators cannot tell the psychologist what / what not to look for. They can’t just stop testing if they suspect a real disability.
I think you’re on point. I didn’t get the impression from the small news clip that the mother would feel ashamed if he was diagnosed with autism (as some commenters have mentioned) but rather that she authentically doesn’t believe he’s on the spectrum and doesn’t want him receiving the wrong diagnosis. On the other hand, I wonder how familiar she is between educational diagnosis and medical diagnosis. Just because the school may determine that in the educational environment he shows signs of autism, thats not the same as an official medical diagnosis. At the same time, IDEA says that all areas of suspected disabilities should be evaluated.
Is it because they dont receive the $$ for autism diagnosis? why specifically autisim, I saw another video on news on yt where a district in TX received a huge amount just for children with autism..in that video they’re saying many more kids getting diagnosed with autism
I decided to listen to this in the background while working, and you made some really good points on this! I really liked listening and hearing your perspective. Now I'm gonna sift through your other videos for more things to listen to haha
Awww...thanks! I am def an advocate for special education...education in general, but I also have to be a voice of reason. Can’t wait to see you this summer! New area, still same positive impact.
I think one can infer that based on what she did say, but it’s not exactly what I was saying. She stated that she didn’t want him tested for autism because according her he didn’t have any symptoms. However, the school feels otherwise, that is why they are suing her. Because they don’t want to test a few areas and without testing everything. So what I am saying is the school has a right to test. She can’t be sure he doesn’t have unless it is ruled out. What she doesn’t want to test for it.

The school District is being petty about it. Great perspective. Thanks for sharing this is not something I had heard about
Thanks for taking the time to watch.
I’m in college and had to go get another autism evaluation. Turns out I need more accommodations but my school refuses to accommodate.
If it’s stated in your evaluation, they can’t deny you accommodations. Get a lawyer.

Good point! I am not that familiar between a medical diagnosis and educational one myself. I have heard of it.

So Im saying if he left school they receive less funds but to lose an “austistic child”

It sure sounds like you were saying she wanted to choose.
I think one can infer that based on what she did say, but it’s not exactly what I was saying. She stated that she didn’t want him tested for autism because according her he didn’t have any symptoms.

keep the good work up
Thanks!! Much appreciate it.
Wow! What an interesting case. I haven’t heard about this before. I agree with both sides of the case but do agree the school is being a bit petty.
