First off this is a rant.
Secondly and simultaneously, I’m getting tired of educating other staff, administrators, and to some degree other professionals regarding:

1. How so many students are being over-service, over-qualifying, and some SLPs pathologizing dialect/difference.

2. How assessments should NOT be based on standardized assessment scores alone. We, as clinicians need to look at the child as a whole.

3. How the I in IEP stands for individualized.

4. How assessment still have limitations.

5. The fact there the school model and medical model and how they differ.

I’m getting tired of being tokenized while still not being listened to or respected.

Ok, rant over. Thank you for reading!
