It's Back to School time, and for a lot of us, that can mean a return to stress related to our tricky kids. According to IDEA, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act "All children are entitled to a free and public education in the least restrictive environment " What does that mean and how does it apply to your tricky kid?

Today Stefanie goes over 504 Plans and IEPs. She explains what they are, who qualifies, how to implement one, and how to make sure the law is being followed.

Hopefully today's episode helps give the tools to advocate for our tricky kids.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
