I think that the days of being nice are pretty much over and us hoh/deaf's are going to have to be forceful in our assertions.
You are right... any deaf parents can inform to ADA about the interpreters at the schools... Nothing new about Money issue of interpreters.. it is their LAME excuses...

KEEP FIGHTING FOR YOUR RIGHTS... DO NOT GIVE UP EASILY!!!

Thanks!!
