Update on my 504 issue

[Hellifino]

First I just want to thank everyone who responded to my post. Every opinion is important to me whether it pisses me off or not because very often the truth will piss you off. I wasn't upset by what anyone said I'm just saying I want to hear what everyone has to think regardless, so thanks. I think I'm going to keep my son in Social Studies because I don't want him to ever be a quitter and at some point you have to learn how to deal with difficult people, but believe me that teacher is going to be so sick of seeing me because I'm going to ride her hard. Sometimes though I think if there is any benefits to having a illness they might as well be used because your sure paying the price ya know?

For those that didn't read the previous thread I was thinking about dropping my son from Social Studies just because I can.

Sounds like a good plan to me. Good for you to ride her though, sounds like she was being unfair, but I think you are making the right decision for your son to teach him not to quit just because he can.

I am glad to hear you choice to keep him in the class. It does teach him a certain "tolerance" for unpleasant people & situations. I also think you should ride her ass if need be. This also teaches your son that although he has an illness & that shouldnt be the easy way out, there are times you need to stand up for things. It also shows your support for him!

That last sentence didn't really come out right. I guess what I mean to say is that if you can make life easier for your child with CF shouldn't you because isn't it hard enough already?

I'd say yes and no to this one, depending on the situation.

There's nobody to "make my husbands life easier" so to speak, now that he's an adult. So I'm glad his mom didn't make excuese for his CF when he was younger. Mark demands to be treated just as anyone else would, even when his CF should hold him back (because of legitimate physical reasons). I think that's WHY he is who he is today! He's very determined and lets nothing get in his way, and is very proud of all his accomplishments. He did it all, all on his own, without exceptions because of CF along the way.

I guess it depends on what each person (especially the CFer) considers making life easier......

I'm glad Ry's family never babied him, or let him et out o anything. He had homework, chores, and everything else a kid his age had. He was treated as normal up to the point where they absolutely couldn't. I liked that Ry was raised that way, he was tough and bounced back from things. He also was an equal partner in my marriage and never expected me to baby him.

The real world goes by the pirate code "Whoever falls behind, gets left behind." It's a cruel lesson, but one he'll have to learn once he gets out in college and relationships, and a job. They won't tolerate someone used to being babied, or haivng special favors, least of all in relationships.
