To be the parent of a Special Needs Child

This is from the Special Education Law Blog (SELB) that is both touching and true. It is one of the first education blogs I ever read, and continue to read. The blog is put out by the parents of a special needs child. The father, Charles Fox, happens to be a lawyer representing parents of special needs children. This particular post is from the mother, Lori Fox. It makes me want to do a good job whenever I finally enter the classroom as a special education teacher.

My Favorite quote:

"There is history, there is always history of one kind or another, and sometimes you can learn from it, and sometimes the inconsistency is mindnumbing, but there are always heroes. Sometimes they are therapists, sometimes they are family, sometimes they are the friends who accept your child for who he or she is, and sometimes, yes, sometimes, they are even school people, but always, always, always, they are your children."
