Honest opinions please. No need to sugar coat.
We've been offerred an opportunity to move to Californa as a family for 3-5 years. This would be for my husbands job.
We have a little one who has a leaning disability. He's only 3 so it's still early days to understand how this will affect him as he grows. He has GDD, although gross motor skills are now in line with his age, he is still delayed in all the other areas. Most significantly affecting his day to day is that he has communication difficulties and difficulties understanding others.
I've tried to google SEN support in Californa. Most things are set up for if you're already in the states and have various documents in place, which we won't. In the UK,we have DLA and are discussing delaying school start and also getting an EHCP in place for when school eventually starts. I'm worried about walking away from all this and never getting it back.
Financially, it is a significant increase which is why it's being entertained as an idea.
Would you do it?
What would be your main considerations?
Anyone have any expereince of SEN in California?
