Guest guest Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 , Have you thought of casually relaying your experience and saying things such as " there is some reports of dietary interventions that parents have done with success etc etc. Or as we speak right now, MIND institute (very mainstream medical research) is doing a series of alternative treatment studies including oral human Immunoglobin and MB 12 shots. So, the fact is that these studies are now being initiated based on the success stories and no one can't fault you for this information. My heart does go to you. It would be so hard to see these children suffer and not be able to get their parents to help them or talk about how they can.

Guest guest Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 I am pretty much in the same boat- I am a parent mentor-as well as a class mom for my 4 kids' rooms. What these kids eat is unbelievable! Anyway- I do mention biomedical alternatives if interested, they ask questions, if not, I drop it. I've said my piece, that is all I can do. I do have teachers that have dramatically gutted treats and food for parties, as well as sent home " projects " like following a healthy eating plan, etc... they ask for fruit and 10 calorie juice boxes instead of crackers, candy , etc. -GA > It's becoming a little difficult to do my job...... > > My son is 3.8 PDD-NOS, just diagnosed in December.

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 Re: Can I vent? , I wish you were in my area. It would be nice to actually have a school phycologist who actually understands the needs of our kids and doesn't just want to do the bare minimum. I did have a question, you mentioned " their little red ears " . My sons tend to get bright red ears, and normally this is an indication that they are getting something. They are not on any enzymes yet. I'm actually looking at raw milk or kefer part of the Weston Price Foundation. Not really sure about anything these days.

Guest guest Posted February 13, 2006 Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 Bless you for caring so much. Our school nurse and I have talked a few times about this. She has relayed the constraints on what she can and cannot bring up - can impact her licensing or employment. Really, the reasons the policies are there are valid. It's understandable that what helped someone personally would be on their 'tell everyone' list. But what if a nurse/teacher/counselor truly believed that joining Cult X with whatever rituals and practices was what every child needed for optimum health and quality of life? The restraints are there to prevent the abuse of power that could happen when a 'knowledgeable and trained' person of influence where giving out their own personal views in a professional capacity in the school setting. I am very thankful that we have some wonderful school nurses here that have made our lives easier. They have been on-board with the enzymes, but I have know it can be a nightmare if the school personell decide to make an issue of it. .
