I couldn't help but respond to your comment. I think until you have walked a mile in the shoes of someone actually dealing with a disabled child for a day, then you could possibly learn to understand that families frustration. It bothers me when you compared your "Bright, creative,typical child" to a disabled child on who would make the "bigger impact" in society! Are you not aware of Albert Einstien? or Bill Gates? each of whom were diagnosed with autism! If you want more resources for your "Bright,creative child" then yell and scream and fight school boards like we have to cause they aren't just handed to you my dear. You can ask any parent regarding that! It's so sad that not only do us parents have to live our lives with a difficult disability, we also have to deal with the ignorance of people like you.
