Question: Daycare and disabled children? Can daycares turn children away because they use a walker or need extra attention?  Is that legal in TX?  Does it fall under discrimination?\n\nMy daughter attends a daycare here in TX and has Spastic Cerebral Palsy.  She has started undergoing treatments to help her walk, but the daycare (who knew all of this when she started) has said if she can't move herself she can't be in daycare.  She will be in leg casts for 8 to 9 weeks and using a walker when she can.  Is it legal for them to throw her out like this?

Answer: Your state (every state) has a Part C program that can assist you. You might call your local school and ask them how to be in contact with your Part C person.\nPart C is the law that ensures all children under 3 of an appropriate education. After your little girl turns 3 the law changes and the Part B section will assist her. She has rights! Good Luck
