Kindergarten teacher allows students to 'vote' autistic boy out of classroom | |
Is45 User ID: 294391 United States 05/27/2008 08:18 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | ~ There is a wonderful family-friendly fantasy movie about a boy with autism. Perhaps if teachers and students saw movies like this one, instead of ugly perverted violent TV, movies and video games, they would view the world and it's diversity much differently.

And no - socialization is no longer a problem. Many families now homeschool and create their own social groups. Personal responsibility - try it sometime. Quit blaming others for your bad choices. Consequences happen. :enaid11: |

It's a valuable life lesson for him. Because for all of his life, he will, in one way or another, be "voted out" of everything. And the assholes who now express outrage and indignation about this story are the ones who happily make life Hell for anyone and everyone they can. People love to tell each other "People are basically good." That's a lie, of course. People are basically deeply, devotedly, profoundly evil. And there's nothing they love better than tormenting the innocent. |

Private (non-religious) or some home schooling is much better. Home schooling won't be around much longer because 1 student costs the state 8-10K per year. Nobody gives a fuck about anything anymore. They're begging for fascism. They're on their fucking knees dying for it. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 437044Unfortunately, the majority of them are mainstreamed, because of a very high I.Q. I have one and was never a problem, except he would over-focus and not hear the teacher when he was absorbed with a book. He wouldn't even know when they'd gone on to the next lesson. Of course, he was considered odd for it. I yanked him out after fourth grade and homeschooled my special one. He has Asperger's Syndrome and he's adorable. The regular classroom is too stressful and torture for them. They need to have their own school to study what they are interested in. Parents are going through hell! |

Throughout the Cosmos, ours in the only known species that ridicules and murders it's own, for no good reason. I long for doom and destruction. Put us humans out of our misery. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 613691 United States 02/12/2009 05:50 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I am shocked by how many people have posted in agreement with what the teacher did. I am a student observing in a school district that has a lot of children with special needs. The majority of them are still in a normal classroom with their peers, but receive Occupational Therapy and special education. I am working with one child who has Down Syndrome and 2 with a form of Autism. Of these 3 children only 1 is not in the classroom most of the day. Yes their curriculum has been modified to meet the needs of their disability, but what does pulling them completely from a school tell your child, other parents or teachers... That your child isn't good enough to be with others their age? That people will always treat them like this if they don't seek help and get the support they need? That you can be easily manipulated into pulling your child from any activity if they "pick on them"? That you aren't willing to fight for your child to have the same rights as other children? That you aren't willing to make the school district make changes about how much special education/selected services children with disabilities are receiving at that school? I think there are more factors to look at than pointing fingers. Maybe look into a school district that offers additional services that your child will benefit from or that has more funding to help with children with disabilities. I know this isn't easy, but when it comes to children... they are what we teach them. I agree that what the teacher did was wrong and unethical. No child should ever be subjected to something like this from the one who is suppose to be helping them learn day in and day out. But what are other parents telling their children who are in that class room? Are they telling them this was okay or to forget about it? That is just as morally wrong to be teaching children those concepts as well. |
