Hi Olga
Thanks for your comments. Don't apologise for your emotions. You should see how mine run sometimes. I think most of us working in this field or trying to support parents and young people have a lot to face, including a lot of emotions.
I feel too that once a new *label* comes on the block it is overused and abused too quickly. The more I look at, think about and work with the whole issue of Spec. Ed. , Social and emotional learning and education in general , the more it becomes clear that there is too much confusion and we all need to be very careful. I guess part of my objective here is to keep pointing out the confusion and reminding everyone to be careful and examine each situation on its own merit.To me paying attention to the fundamental emotional needs of the child (and any human for that matter) is the first step.
I am interested in your topic and will be visiting regularly.
Marilyn
