In my time working with them, he has had several vision/hearing tests done and has failed the vision screening every time. I have sent messages to the family several times and a paper from the people who do the vision/hearing screening saying that he may need to see the doctor about his vision. Unfortunately, they refuse to have their child checked to see if they may need glasses and I am afraid that it could be a major factor into why they have fallen behind so much. What should I do? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I think a positive way to go about this would be setting up a parent teacher conference with the vision specialist present would be a great way, if the students parents agree to meet. This way they can observe their students vision struggles the classroom and performing tests. I also think that looking into financial programs that help with the costs of glasses, incase this is a par5t of the reason no action has been taken.
