Our school chronically twists words when it comes to my parental input on IEPs. This results in my daughter NOT receiving necessary services, and they refuse to include legitimate health information within IEP documents just so they can deny them. How does a school keep getting away with refusing to provide any care at all by a school nurse for an incontinent child? This is child abuse, and they won't budge. I see lots of people on various social media platforms making the exact same types of complaints about children past potty-training 'typical' age, that due to their disabilities remain incontinent and unable or incapable of caring for their toileting ADLs. Lots and Lots of people, all over the State! How do they get away with this? Letting incontinent kids 'in loco parentis' not have access to proper hygiene care? This is sick. Do better.
