It took three years but I finally got them their diagnosis and now I don’t know what to do next. Their school always gave us issues when we held them to the expectation that my kids would get the help they needed from their school. They refused to let my youngest stay a full day last year for his first year of school, and now CMH (community mental health of Northern michigan) is trying to say he no longer needs their services and should stay in his normal classroom, like they’re trying to get rid of him. And with my daughter, they refused to get her onto an IEP before we forced them to. Now that I have the diagnosis, what are my options to ensure my children get the help they need?
If moving to New York or a state with better services is an option, do it.
