There are two "minutes". They are distinguished by pronunciation, not just context. You have the well known minute, as in 60 seconds; and minute (my-newt) as in very small, minuscule. Please get it right.

April 2006:

To Whom It May Concern:

I am writing this letter about my son, Dhaakir Bailey, a student of The Judge Rotenberg Educational Center. Before Dhaakir was enrolled in this wonderful program, we had many difficult days. Dhaakir was very aggressive and would assault his classmates by striking then in the face, jumping on their backs, throwing things at them as well as trying to choke some of them. Similar behaviors were exhibited towards staff. Dhaakir has started a fire in a previous school, has broken other’s property, has thrown chairs and managed to flood the entire school. He has made suicidal threats, left school grounds and has stabbed himself with sharp objects. Noncompliance and disruptive behaviors were also occurring on a daily basis. Can you believe that all of this happened before the age of ten? Due to his problematic behaviors, I would receive calls on a daily basis to come and pick him up. As a result, I ended up losing my job. It was decided that my son would benefit from a residential program. I agreed with this but the challenge of finding an appropriate school was a difficult one- until I found The Judge Rotenberg Educational Center.

My son has been at JRC for the last two years. My son is not on medication and continues to make behavioral progress on a daily basis. His academic achievements continue to amaze me! This program helped get his behaviors under control which is allowing him to excel academically. JRC keeps parents involved, despite the distance and has the most comprehensive video monitoring I have ever seen. It is difficult for me to be away from my son, but I am certain that he is safe and being well cared for by JRC’s many employees.

My son might be lying in a psych hospital- overmedicated if I did not find JRC. If he continued down the path he was going, he may have ended up in jail or dead. If JRC is no longer an option for my child, I fear to think of what alternatives may be offered that we haven’t already tried. I refuse to let my little boy be one of NYC’s statistics! We all want the best for our children and as parents, we should have the right to decide what we think is best! If you have walked a mile in my shoes or have a child with similar disabilities you would understand the daily struggles that some parents face. We should have the right to choose what treatment works best for our children- not politicians that have no idea what it is like to care for these children!

Sincerely,

James Bailey
New York, NY
