"My kids are all grown now and I'm thrilled they are no longer in school. Now my kids are happy and healthy but they were not like that while they attended school. While in school they were often sick and had a lot of anxiety and depression. I know it was because the teachers never seem to care about educating them. It always seemed like the teachers cared more about the children who could learn easily and ignored my kids. We have a lot of bad memories from school and what makes me the most sad is how teachers still no not want to admit the negative effects of being an LD student. I hear my coworkers tell me about their experiences with school districts and feel sick to my stomach that these problems still exist. I would have thought that things would have changed but they haven't. Now, I am scared because my oldest grandchild is going to be starting school next year. My heart is breaking already just knowing of the battles he will have to face."
**This was a quote from a grandmother who called me asking which school district should she encourage her children to move to so her grandchildren can have a great education and graduate with a good self-esteem.
