Author JoAnn Collins Exposes Disability Educators' Lies That Hurt Children
With Disabilities!
Parents Fighting for Their Children's Lives Face Severe Financial Hardship
BRADLEY, Ill., Jan. 7 /PRNewswire/ -- Many parents who are fighting for an
appropriate education for their child with disabilities encounter lies by
disability educators. Many times parents do not understand that they are being
lied to, and may believe this false information, to the detriment of their
child. The new book, Disability Deception: Lies Disability Educators Tell and
How Parents Can Beat Them at Their Own Game, by JoAnn Collins, will finally
expose these lies, and give practical, easy to follow advocacy strategies on
how to win the lie game!
"As a mother of two adults with disabilities, I have been lied to many
times, and am outraged by this deceptive practice!" says author JoAnn Collins.
"Disability Deception will help parents recognize when they are being lied to,
teach them how to assertively and persistently advocate for their child, and
give them many useful resources to provide them the ammunition they need to
fight for their child's life."
Parents who are trying to fight for an appropriate education for their
child, and overcome school personnel's lies, are facing severe financial
hardship. Some must spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to ensure that
their child is making "meaningful" progress in their education. School
districts often have expansive financial resources, while parents usually have
few. An example is the Winkelman family of Parma, Ohio, who recently won a
Supreme Court decision, but must continue to fight for their son Jacob to
receive an appropriate education. This is causing financial hardship to the
family. An article in the Cleveland Plain Dealer by Elizabeth Auster has a
headline of "The courts tarry but the bills don't, autistic kids' mom finds."
Another article in the Denver Post by Karen Auge has a headline of "The fight
for autism." The Tappert family of Colorado paid $110,000 over two years for
therapy for their daughter Abby's autism. The Tappert family recently won
payment of the $110,000 from Anthem Blue Cross/Blue Shield. Therapies for
autism are extremely expensive, and few families can afford to pay for them on
their own. A fight with school personnel for payment of the expensive
therapies causes more financial hardship on parents. Web addresses for both
articles are at www.disabilitydeception.com.
C.P., a parent from Virginia, states, "Disability Deception is a must have
for parents ... that need honest and truthful information about what school
districts don't want you to know about your rights."
Disability Deception gives parents a fighting chance!
