This question is for DHs coworker, who has asked for help with his son. Coworker adopted 2 little boys (brothers) when they were toddlers. I cannot remember for sure, but I think DH said the birth mother abused drugs during her pregnancies.
The first child has been diagnosed with ADHD, and after a year of fighting with the school to get him an IEP (yeah, they totally jerked him around and basically lied about their obligations)--he is getting the help and accommodations he needs.
Now the second brother has been evaluated by a Dr. and found to have "very low IQ". Dr said this most likely means learning disabilities as well. The child is having problems in school both academically and socially. But the school says they don't need to do anything about it, and is denying any further testing or giving him help.
What can he do?
Thanks ladies!
