I know that this is way off topic. However, I know several of you have
disabled children or know people who do. As parents, we don't even think
that our children should get "s s  d i " as small children. They are our
responsibility and we care for them.So we don't apply for services that we
don't think we need.

Now that our son is 43 and we are planning for his life when we aren't able
to care for him, we are being told that since he didn't get s s d i before
he was eighteen he is not going to get the full amount services that he
would be entitled to if he had gotten s s d i as a child. 

I would suggest you talk to your legal adviser and see if you should be
doing something to insure your child's future. 

Hope this info helps someone prevent the issues I have to fight now.
Henrietta
