IEP War ~ A Poem For Parents

Tis’ the season,

An IEP’s the reason,

That parents walk through the classroom door.

They chat with experts,

IEP experts,

While their children play on the floor.

Confusion sets in,

From deep down within,

Until parents can take no more.

Their eyes become glazed,

And their mind slightly hazed,

As they peer anxiously toward the door.

As the meeting wraps up,

To every question, they answer “yup,”

While wishing they simply knew more.

As they leave for the day,

They make a promise and say,

“I will somehow win this IEP war.”

Author Luke Dalienhttps://specialedresource.com/author/lukedalien/ has spent his life dedicated to helping others break the chains of normal so that they may live fulfilled lives. When he’s not busy creating books aimed to bring a smile to the faces of children, he and his amazing wife, Suzie, work tirelessly on their joint passion; helping children with special needs reach their excellence. Together, they founded an online tutoring and resource company, SpecialEdResource.com. Poetry, which had been a personal endeavor of Luke’s for the better part of two decades, was mainly reserved for his beautiful wife, and their two amazing children, Lily and Alex. With several “subtle nudges” from his family, Luke finally decided to share his true passion in creativity with the world through his first children’s book series, “The Adventures Of The Silly Little Beaver."
