    The student probably has a physical and an occupational therapist. I would suggest you consult with them, as there are unique features to each patient with spastic CP. Obviously you need to get parental consent or approval for certain activities.

    I hate to say this, but in our litigatious age, you need to CYA.

    The different 2 solutions are proper, I simply desire to broaden on them extra. My sister has Spastic Diplegia, and she or he at this factor is ineligible for advantages on the grounds that she has no paintings historical past, and isn't presently making an attempt to go into the paintings drive (she is completing institution). You can best qualify for advantages if you're making an attempt to paintings, however are not able to take action as discovered via a healthcare professional and different authorities. It works similarly to unemployment coverage, you ought to desire to paintings however are prohibited from doing so. SSI isn't quite simply coins you get given for having a incapacity. When the analysis is formally made and the man or woman is able to go into the paintings drive, talk to a claims consultant on the SSI workplace. Each declare is evaluated separately, and should you dont like the primary reaction you get, collect extra assisting records (ask the healthcare professional for study papers, they continuously paintings good) and reapply. Cerebral Palsy is a relatively recognized sickness, so I doubt you're going to have a situation the primary time you publish besides. Good good fortune!
