Parent Teacher Conferences Gone Wrong

Originally Published Dec 22, 2008, 3:31pm (Updated Mar 28, 2011, 1:24pm)

At this time of year, many schools are wrapping up their parent-teacher conferences and for many parents, there are no real surprises. However, some parents may be surprised to learn their child is having difficulty with specific areas or is just struggling in general. It can be difficult as a parent to fully understand the different struggles different children have with school, especially if there were no previous problems. In many cases, certain speech or language difficulties, attention issues, or motor skill development delays do not surface until first or second grade and maybe even beyond.

If you recently met with your child teacher for a conference and were advised your child may have a learning disability or developmental delay, it may be overwhelming news, but Kidz Therapy Networks, Inc. can help you sort it out.
