Randy,

It's always good advice to recognize those things we can not change and accept them as they are and move on to something else. Plenty of things to worry about in life without getting stuck on things we have no control over.

I've run into some people in Washington D.C. who insisted change was not possible. I've pushed when I felt change was possible, and sometimes, the people who insisted change was not possible ended up learning change was in fact possible.

Never give up unless you're absolutely sure change is not possible.

I just stumbled across your blog, and the timing of me reading this post is perfect.

I am a parent of a special needs child who was sued by our school district at the age of 4 because thy did not want to provide appropriate services for our child.

While we have found many wonderful attorneys willing to help us fight the injustice, we have been repeatedly told not to fight to change this oppressive system in Texas because there is no chance to win, and such efforts will only result in worse law being established.

It is a sad day when parents in our position are told to give up without even trying. What will become of these children?

Thanks for the post. My new words to live by.

Emily
