Absolutely. Parents who have disabilities should be accommodated for when it comes to the education of their children. If they want to participate in the education activities that goes on at their child's school, that is a great thing and should be something they can take full advantage of. In Rothschild v. Grottenhaler (1990), the United States Court of Appeals ruled that a public school system receiving federal financial assistance is obligated to provide a sign language interpreter, at the school district's expense. This provides the most fair and proper opportunities for a parent. If the parents had to pay for these accommodations themselves, then it would be unfair because they should be able to have the same rights as everyone else. How could someone deny a parent the right to participate in activities related to their children's education? Some parents just don't care or do not want to put in that extra effort; so any parent that does want to be involved should be able to no matter what the situation is.
This is my experience of my education class at SSU. I am a psychology major but my interests have always been relating to children. I am going on the journey to see if education is a better fit for me.
