Top 5 Mistakes Parents Make Using ChatGP
Jun 23, 2025AI can be a great support... when used well. These common mistakes can cost you time and credibility with your IEP team. Here’s what to avoid.
1. Copying Output Without Revising
AI drafts should never be used word-for-word. Always personalize, review, and reframe.
2. Using Vague Prompts
Be specific. Say the grade level, subject area, and desired output.
3. Sharing Personal Information
Never include your child’s name, disability category, or school name. Stay general.
4. Over-Relying on AI for Legal Tasks
It’s a tool—not a lawyer or advocate. AI may hallucinate or omit critical protections.
5. Letting It Replace Your Voice
Use AI to support your message, not erase it! Your story, your insight, and your tone matter most.
