Making Things Happen Educationally

by Kristina Chew, PhD on November 18th, 2008

Parents are making things happen educationally

writes New Zealand journalist David Cohen today in the Guardian’s Mortarboard blog. Cohen’s son Eliot is autistic and he’s the author of A Perfect World. Cohen writes about how around the world—New Zealand, Britain, Israel, South Korea and the United States—parents have been hard at work trying to figure out how to provide the most appropriate education for their children possible. He speaks of parents as an “educational infantry” and I’d add that, truly, I’m just the support staff doing my best to help my son do the best he can every day.

Onward, yes.
