Solution: 
1.  Start as young as possible to ask "What would you like to do in this situation...?" and respect their answer as much as is feasible.
2. Other self-determination questions to ask are "What are your plans today?"  or "How will you accomplish that."

Meet with the parents to discuss what their hopes/intentions are for their child, and determine why they are unwilling to participate in transition planning
4. Allow parents to meet adults who have successfully gone through the transition process to share their experiences (in the hopes of showing parents what is possible for their child)
