As the mother of a disabled child that got eaten up and spit out by Los Angeles Unified School District, I applaud the efforts of Mr. F. Please tell Mr. F that his son has helped many other children and that he should be proud of his dad for fighting for the rights of other children whose parents don't have the money to hire lawyers. Hopefully, he will have the persistence to follow through for any appeals. If this lawsuit stands, it will help many other children. Many anti-discrimination laws stand today because someone filed a lawsuit. Who cares if he had money. If he was poor, nobody would complain and the issue would get no attention. Since Mr. F has begun advocating for the disabled, how about he continue? Can he go to and testify before Congress and let everyone know what extent he had to go to? There are many of us who need help and don't get it. Please continue what you have started and be a voice for those of us who are not heard. Please, obviously, you know how to make people listen. There are thousands of young children who need your help. Please continue what you have started and many thanks.
