Moms who think adhd, autism, sensory processing disorder, etc are bs...

Yes, some are misdiagnosed but to say these disorders do not exist baffles me.

I think it's all fake because parents would rather medicate than parent. Raising kids is hard, so lets give them a fucking complex and medication for it.
there's a ton of paper work, you have to see one of their doctors after submitting letters from your own doctor about the disability of said child. its not like one day you file and in a few months you are automaticly approved.

SSI did not make my cousin jump through hoops, her first one was approved in 6 months and her 2nd was approved in 3 months. Then there is one of my best friends who applied because her daughter was born with hydrocephalus and a year later she is denied. Yes that makes complete sense
Quoting Jamie1972:
1 you obvious have no clue whats it like to have a child with autism
2 SSI makes you jump through hoops, and IF you are approved you dont automaticly get $700, you get money based on your income,
3 medical insurances dont always cover thearpies of any kind, most parents either dont have a job, have a job that offers no insurance or cant afford the insrance rates. So that money if they are approved for is used for theapies and or medications or anything else they cant afford on their own.

No children do not deserve to be handed $700 a month to support themselves, that is the parents job. It needs to go back to the way it was years ago, you did not get ssi for a child unless they where severely sick (pretty much bedridden) or terminal, not because a kid can't look you in the eyes, throws temper fits and does not like certain foods. This entitlement shit is why the United States is in the situation it is.

It's not like a lot of other programs the government pays for would meet other people's approval. This just happens to be a popular one. I wonder if we know all the government spends money on.

Parents claim disabilities for the money. Ssi instead of a job--woohoo!
My son has sensory processing disorder. No ssi.
Btw, those who have kids with autism need the money for their kids. It can be expensive. I know just ours for our kid isn't cheap. He has speech therapy and occupational therapy.
Quoting Anonymous:She would get medical assistance if her income is low enough to get ssi and medical assistance covers all therapies for autistic kids. I have a cousin with 2 so called autistic kids and a friend with a kid that I do believe does have a touch of autism and ALL therapies are covered for them but they like having that extra $700 a month. She was bullshitting you when she told you that is why she applied.

Insurance doesn't always cover all of the therapies that an autistic child may need, and not everybody has a job that offers insurance. I know one parent that gets SSI for her autistic child, and the main reason she even applied was for the insurance so he could keep getting help after he turned 3 and aged out of early intervention.

We also don't get SSI, we could, but I don't want them to think it's ok to get paid for nothing.
I understand the kids that need SSI, mine don't. We are able to provide or sometimes make our own therapy objects. Nine yr olds pencils we can't make, but they are fairly cheap.
There are kids that need help, and there are kids whose parents are the ones who need the help. Don't write off the ones who actually live the disorder. There are aspects that have nothing to do with behavior and can't be faked.

I have 24 kids in my class. 18 have some kind of a disability. My kids who have spd don't like the taste or texture of food. Wtf. Get over it. They don't like the way their coat feels today. Wtf. Employers won't be so apt to change everything because Johnny hates his new desk chair and won't sit down and get to work. That's fucking ridiculous.
These kids need to be taught to fucking deal with it sometimes. Parents baby them and that just hurts them further. It's a cycle.
Most other diagnoses are wrong, too, in my kids. They behave when they're being challenged. They behave when free time is on the line. They have the control but choose not to exercise it.
Every parent thinks their kid is super special, and some of them even get meds for it. Ridiculous.
Quoting Anonymous:I am sure there are lazy parents but this doesn't mean that there isn't such a thing. Spend a day with my son and you would see.
He has sensory issues, mainly with his food. It' snot just about what he likes but it's uncomfortable for him.

I'm a teacher. I see these lazy POS parents every day who can't be bothered to discipline and would rather get a check and medication.

Because people think they are entitled to things, I think if you get SSI for a kid you should have to prove that the money was spent on something that a normal child does not need. No they should not be able to spend it on clothes,food and bills, whatever is not spent needs to go in a checking account and when the kid turns 18 it goes back to the Gov. I have no problem with someone getting help for medical stuff, no one, especially a child should go without medical, but the idea of handing people a $700 check a month is total bullshit.
Quoting Anonymous:
Why should the government have to pay for something a child 'needs' but parents don't have the money for? Get another fucking job. Take out loans. Do what you have to do.
It's welfare, people. It's allowing the government to be your baby daddy instead of being self-sufficient.
Quoting Anonymous:
I don't have a child receiving services, but I do know that not all insurances cover the same things. Our plan has a $1000 deductible and a $40 copay per therapy visit. In addition, there is a maximum amount of therapy covered a year ($1500). If a child gets 2 ot or 2 pt visits a week, the expenses pile up quickly. Add speech therapy to that, and a normal family could go broke quickly. As a society, we are not benefited if kids are not treated early and well.

And this is what is wrong with the tenure system. Trust me these parents know their kids far better than you do.
Quoting Anonymous:
Lol parents don't have all the power honey. I have tenure :-). I've been this way all my life and after 14 years of teaching, I still believe it.
It causes me extreme discomfort to wake up. I hate it. Do I cry, bitch, whine, get attention or anything? No, do what I have to. What are we teaching our kids that if they don't like something, just don't do it. It's totally okay!! What the fuck ever.
I will hold these kids to higher standards than their parents do and they act better. Eventually the kids get tired of the charade and being a pawn in the government game.
Quoting briansmommy2010:
If you have the attitude that a child with SPD just needs to get the fuck over something that is causing them extreme discomfort, then you need to get the hell out of your line of work. If my son ever has a teacher with your attitude about his issues, I will make damn sure that teacher no longer has a job.

She actually doesn't get much (if any) cash from SSI. She and her fiance make too much to qualify for Medicaid, and they don't have insurance through their job. But their son still needs a lot of different specialists, and they need insurance coverage for it.

I know. Pos lazy parents who have kids with 'disorders' and government checks. It's welfare, and you're welfare queens. It's just government scum.
The people who are physically ill can't get it because parents believe there's something mentally wrong with their kids.
Sad for our country.

i dont think that. I do think parents treat these kids different and from personal experience raising a child with learning issues your doing them a disservice! You end up with a child that is selling themselves short and believes they there disabilities limit them ( btw they dont)!
Do you ever get hit on even looking a mess?
Why inflict this silly cosmetic pain on a baby!?!
