Re: Diabetes Care in the School and Day Care Setting

I have to agree that I do not want to alienate these people. I'm putting my daughter's life in their hands, and the last thing I need is resentment towards me and her. She has a hard enough time at school with this without them feeling ill will towards her also. I have to laugh at the assistant principal though. He's a type 2, and he just automatically assumed everything was exactly the same with type 1. He doesn't check himself at all, and only gets two injections a day, so he assumed she would be that way also. Boy, did he get an eye-opener!
Thank you for allowing me to vent earlier. Sometimes I feel like it's the world against my daughter and I. I feel much better now.

What you Shae to do is notify the principal that you are filing criminal charges against him under the law,

Write to the US Department of Education, Office of Civil Rights and tell them about the failure of the school to follow the disabilities law.

You should contact the REGIONAL office. I donut know what region you are in, but call the national office and ask them

That will get some action going,

Next, contact the children s disability advocates in your area, Check with the ACLU, and the Juvenile diabetes foundation as to whose local.

Drop me a line if you need more help finding people.

This is all very fine, and legally justified. However, just how much does she want to alienate the staff at the school her daughter will perhaps be attending for the next 6 years or so?

I understand the problems. I'm not sure the solutions are that easy.




SUCKER!!

Why dont you just put a sign on her saying "kick me"?

Joe, I can't tell if this guy's trying to be ironic or if he really means whet he posts, but ignoring the fact that public schools in the US DO teach leftism, both because its part of the US academic culture and because it's mandated from the highest levels of school administration, they certainly do a poor jobs of giving the kids the tools they require for a lifetime of learning. ...
