[quote=Anonymous]Today my child’s special education teacher suggested that — with my permission — she might videotape my ASD child’s meltdowns so that I could see some of the behaviors that my child exhibits at school, that might differ from what we see at home. We refused on the basis of privacy concerns, and our special education teacher accepted this and didn’t press further. But the request still strikes me as odd. Which gets to my subject line — is it ever okay for a school to videotape a child’s ASD meltdowns? (Not that it’s relevant to my question, but my child is in upper elementary school, highly verbal and intelligent, and definitely old enough to be aware of someone videotaping her while in heightened distress. And of course that does not begin to address the possibility of such a video being circulated over time, including one day to social media. At least, these fears are part of why we did not give permission.)[/quote]
