Elysia, As a general rule, it is easier to make the decision as to whether to share when you keep in mind WHY you know what you know. Students with disabilities share private information about their disability when that sharing may, in fact, be to their benefit (that is, when there is something that could or should be done to help them). If the person you are sharing with is in a position to help, then the sharing may be useful. If that individual cannot act on the information in a positive way, there isn't really a reason to share at all. Dr. Jane Jarrow
