Reseña del libro "Your Child is Passing, but not Thriving (en Inglés)"
Your Child Is Passing, But Not Thriving is a clear, practical guide for parents who can see the struggle underneath the success-and need to know what to do next.In parent-friendly language, Apryl Morin takes the confusion out of Section 504 and helps families understand how disability-related barriers can affect school even when grades remain strong. You will learn how to recognize hidden struggles, document what is really happening, request an evaluation, prepare for school meetings, understand the difference between a 504 Plan and an IEP, build supports that match the actual barrier, and determine whether a plan is truly working.This is not a book about fighting schools. It is about becoming clear, prepared, informed, and confident enough to ask better questions.Inside, you will learn how to:Look beyond grades and identify the true cost of school.Recognize when you have quietly become the accommodation at home.Turn vague concerns into clear, functional barriers.Understand when Section 504 may fit-and when the IDEA/IEP question should be raised.Write supports that are specific, usable, and measurable.Prepare for difficult meetings and respond when you hear, "But your child is passing."Track whether accommodations are actually happening and helping.Support your child's voice without making them responsible for proving their own need.Build independence without removing support too soon.You will also receive 12 practical parent tools, including the Hidden Struggle Snapshot, Cost of the Grade Tracker, Parent Documentation Toolkit, 504 Evaluation Request Toolkit, 504 or IEP? Parent Decision Guide, Barrier-to-Support Builder, 504 Meeting Preparation Packet, 30/60/90-Day Review Toolkit, Parent Scripts for Difficult 504 Conversations, Parent Field Guide, Student Voice Toolkit, and a Federal Resources and Key Regulations guide.Throughout the book, one question keeps bringing the focus back where it belongs:What did it take for my child to produce that grade?Because thriving is not simply completing the assignment.It is being able to learn without being consumed by the effort. It is getting through the school day without needing hours to recover. It is receiving support without shame. It is growing in independence because the right scaffolds are in place-not because adults disappeared.If you have ever thought, "I know my child is capable, but something is not right," this book will help you put language around what you are seeing, understand your options, and take the next right step.The grade was never the whole story. The child was.
