[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So the article is missing the other part - if this doesn't work, what does? Where is a system or protocol that keeps everyone safe, de-escalates the situation, allows teachers and students to keep teaching and learning and is not detrimental to kids?

What is the solution?[/quote]

Safe from ripping up a math paper? IDK. :roll: [/quote]

The point is, and what is frustrating about stories like these, is that there are plenty of times when children legitimately need a solution when they are out of control. It sounds to me, and I wish there had been more interviews with staff and former staff, that teachers were abusing the use of these rooms so much because it solved some problems with not too much effort -- essentially "putting the kid away". Obviously this is a terrible outcome, but what were the other choices available for kids who do escalate to the level of violence and destruction? That's what I would like this story and others to address.[/quote]
