Unfortunately an ability to modify curriculum or have classroom accommodations may be attractive to some families whose children may "benefit" but in some eyes may not have a "need": extra time on tests, reduced homework, entry into "gifted" programs for which a child did not meet achievement requirements may be among the features sought.

Schools may benefit by an increase in financial aid for serving a larger number of disabled pupils.

Practitioners may benefit by increasing caseload, and in some instances increasing the files of case studies to comb for research as this is a relatively new field with constant developments.
