There were also statements which are troubling for families with 2e children, who may be facing Faustian choices if they must seek private educational settings without the rights provided by public schools under IDEA.
My 2E DD12 wasn't able to fall asleep until 2 am because she is so concerned about Friday's inauguration. "I'm not so much scared about Friday - I'm scared about what happens after." She is especially concerned about the videos she has seen of him mocking the disabled reporter. And although we have not discussed it she has clearly heard some of what went on with Devos' testimony. "What about kids like me with learning disabilities? I just can't go back to regular public school..."
We are in unchartered waters and I truly don't know what to tell her.
