Using a descriptive approach, this article aims to describe parents’ experiences supporting their children with diverse needs in elementary or high school. Based on a network analysis of responses to an electronic survey completed by 408 parents, the main results revealed that the number of diagnoses reported by some parents in response to their child’s needs is significant, ranging from two to seven. Furthermore, though most parents say that they are generally satisfied with the support their child receives at school, others reported communication difficulties with school stakeholders. These findings raise questions about the persistence of the medicalization of children's difficulties and how demobilizing this approach can be for parents regarding the support they provide to their children.

Focusing on the situation of deaf bilingualism in Canada, where sign languages (SLs) are in a situation of diglossia with respect to the official languages, we examine the role and status of SLs in accessibility policies and in Quebecers deaf citizens’ perceptions of equal access to information. Our analysis of deaf citizens’ perceptions and experience (7 focus groups, 13 interviews) shows that adequate accessibility is defined by i) the respect of political commitments, ii) the establishment of norms of accessibility involving free choice of language, iii) personal control of technical parameters, iv) the recognition of deaf expertise’s, and v) the requirement of training and qualification. This analysis reveals a dichotomy between the absence of language policies regarding canadian SLs and the Accessible Canada Act’s goal of eliminating obstacles to information accessibility.
