Special Education

What skills do you need to learn to live independently, have a job, and maybe even get married and have kids? Where do you learn the skills? What would be a good job?

A friend of mine has a child in Elementary School. She was just told that the school is cutting their Special Needs Classes so that the funding can be used towards bilingual studies. Her son is one that is affected by the Special Needs cuts. He suffers from a rare genetic disorder that also causes developmental delays (hence the reason for Special Needs classes). Can schools really cut out the program? I thought that they were required by the government to provide "something".

Serious answers only please....

I just finished a research paper for my English class, and now I have to have a presentation. I'm doing a video slide show, and my topic is Autism. My question is... does anyone know of a site where I can get pictures of people with Autism? Their name and age would be helpful too, but the picture is the most important thing. I have my brother who is Autistic but, well, I can't really have the entire thing about him. Any music suggestions would be helpful too, thank you!

P.S. No, I do not need any more information on the topic, just pictures would be great

Thanks again!

How can I get somebody to come teach a kid wtih special needs at home? We do not feel that he is ready to go to a school yet. He is 4 years old. He doesnt even want to stay with a babysitter. Also he runs off easily. If anybody could tell me how to get somebody to come and teach him at home that would be great. We are in Texas. He knows his name but one wont say it to somebody if they ask. He also doesnt know his phone # or adress, we tried to teach him but he wont listen. that is especialy why we are worried if he gets lost nobod will know who he is.

When I was in special ed I never heard of a IEP.
You were in a special ed class and nothing was expected of you.You did time in the classroom
and I did not master my reading and math skills.
Don't you beleive a watered down curriculum
fails to prepare these kids for what is expected
of them down the road. That was 30 years ago.

My son is by no means dumb but some days he totally gets his math and reading (he's in the first grade) and some days he just goes blank and can't even read the simplest sentence or perform the simplest addition problem. His teacher is stumped as well as my husband and I. We are looking into firther testing but has anyone had a similar experience with a child like this?

My friend has aphasia resulting from a brain injury. He knows what he wants to say, but the words do not come out. He seems to be able to learn to say words/names when he sees them written down, like if somebody gives him their name and phone number. And sometimes he copies words from ads on TV and then can say them. I'd like to try to find something, some kind of tests or "homework" for him to do with common words, maybe with pictures and words and then he could copy them down and say them out loud. Any suggestions?

I have a store near me where they sell school supplies, like little kids learning books and crafts, but don't know if he would do anything with these if they're too "babyish".
