As I was thinking about my response above, i got to wondering how many people actually have an experience like ours. I certainly don't know, but I do think that boards like this are likely to be a bit biased towards people who have had problems with the school systems because they are the ones who most need support.

Certainly that isn't why everyone is here, but maybe you are more likely to be here if things aren't going well. So maybe there are a lot of people whose kids are doing fine in public school--we just don't hear about them because they aren't on this board adn they aren't going to see the HG specialists at the same rates as the kids who are not a good fit for school. At least I wonder if that is the case.
