  Case: Parents won’t acknowledge disability
What to do if a child has a learning disability and the parents refuse to acknowledge it?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
As an educator, I would say to document every sign that shows the student has a learning disability. Nothing is too small, write it all down. I would also have a counselor come in to watch the student from afar, almost as if the person is watching the whole class, just so they can testify as well that someone else has noticed the disability and is aware of it. I would also bring up any test scores or anything that can show the difference between a student with a disability and without a disability. Once you feel that you have collected enough evidence, I would revisit the topic again with the witnesses present.
