So the schools are absolutely outdated, completely outdated. The fresh new OTs who are coming from the schools, they have no knowledge, and we have to... Train them. We have to train the parents. We have to train the schools. We have to train the OTs. And biggest thing is all the parents, maximum, they go to the doctors. Doctors don't give a hope. Then the hope is only the school system.
And the school system is constantly failing them, failing them, failing them. So the parents are surrounded by all the certified clinical professionals who feel they have the right to feel our kids are fooling themselves, are fooling us. And then the parents like us have to step up and say, you don't understand.
because you have that lack of education so i think there's a huge lack of education and that's what i see there's so much effort i have to take not only for a parent but the the professionals and new ots who are passing out who have don't have any experience right now are asking for exorbitant salaries because the school ot schools are paying them at that level.
And it's hard to compete and find those OTs because they say, hey, I go to the school. But if you go to the schools, you're stuck. There is no growth and no development there from a professional perspective.
So that's my thing that I feel that our New Jersey Governor Murphy, who is signing all those grants to the families, there's a whole big revolution should happen that why you're giving to the schools. Hello, we families need it. There are different states. who get it and who does they decide whom we have to pay and whom we don't have to pay. So I think it is the school's outdated.
Because they drive the moms crazy. When I go to the IEP, every time when I return back, I have tears in my eyes.
And these are private special schools who are charging $100,000 or $65,000 per year, plus $20,000 as a transportation fee, where these transportation aides are not, not, not educated.
anybody can go and pick up a driver and they don't even understand english and then they say it's not school says it's not my responsibility to train the train the drivers towards responsibility it is to train those drivers who cannot even take your child to the school and they don't know what to do deal with it because my child is sitting there and my child is is comprehending all the bad words which you are using in the bus
I mean, if you get me, Libby, Katie, and all these families on the stage, I can bet you we will have a lot of people. If you agree, clap. If you agree, bang on the... You know, that's the whole noise. It has to go out and everybody's going to be encouraged that I have to stand up for my child. Katie is not crazy. Libby is not crazy. All these moms are not crazy. We are experiencing it.
and you are telling us to lie to the education system i like now a kid is 23 years old he's finished 58 plus 62 hours of college education and it is proctored it is proctored and if you don't want to believe i don't want to give him to any testing because my child is beyond your capacity When my child is not disabled, you all are disabled to understand my child.
I put myself into a disability because I am disabled to understand my child. I don't have the capacity because my senses are so grounded and I am so connected to my body. That to go into the other dimension, I need to work on myself and I need to transform myself. And that's what my child is telling me. And I'm not doing it. I need to go into that journey.
