[blindkid] School cane O/M issues

Hi all. Thanks for the advice.  
I wrote another note in Joli’s agenda book saying that Joli must take her cane with her to all of her classes and that all of her teachers need to be aware of this.  Her main classroom teacher sent a note back saying that she would discuss it with her O/M teacher.  This makes me mad because I don’t care if the O/M teacher thinks she should have it or not. I think she should have it.  I don’t want the classroom teacher to defer to the O/M teacher on whether or not my child should have her cane with her.  Am I overstepping my bounds to say “I am her mother, and if I say I say she must take her cane with her everywhere she goes, then she must take it regardless of how the O/M teacher feels about it.”? 
Thanks, 
Lauren Wibbe
