Thank you TIm
I am the child who fell threw the cracks .......back years ago
I dropped out in 11th grade as I have said before. Teachers gave up on me so many times . I promised myself it would not happen to mine.
I always talk about my son . Never my daughter . She had a small speech problem when she was young , But not bad enough for help as the classes were full. I worked with her every night. So she could speak correctly. Her writting was not good. Spelling well like mine. Puncuation.,...forget it she had missed all that. I have to say she worked really hard to over come it.
I did have to step in at 11th grade and point out to the teacher . Teaching a college course that if my daughter was not spelling well or puncuating right, Well they had missed a issue.A big one........\
As her college papers were a mess. I asked the teacher how could this have happened? That a whole school missed it till 11th grade?
Did that mean she too was LD?
With that being said she recived extra help. One on one from the teacher.
But what if I had not stepped in?
Most of all we need the parents , the teachers , socaity to wake up..
My daughter is not in 3rd year of college...

This thread is great thank you Tim

No child left behind should mean just that. They are our future...........
P.S. I did this with out spell check.

With all my heart I wish every child could get a good education that suits them........................
