[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am grateful that my kids do not have the desk throwing issue.  I want those to get the help they need.  I also do not think that it is "equity" to have a whole classroom disrupted on a regular basis by a child who has problems.[/quote]

Then, are you willing for the school system to pay for a private school that costs between $60-120K per child for that child to get out of your child's classroom?[/quote]

DP. Honestly, yes. One of my kids had a student like that in his class a few years ago. It was awful and two classmates were injured and required medical attention before the school moved the kid to an ED center. One of the kids got a pretty serious injury from this student; I won't get into specifics, but I could believe the medical bills and attorney fees the county had to foot easily hit the mid five-figures. Looking at the SpEd budget, my guess is it would be cheaper in the long run to send the most emotionally disturbed kids to private placement ASAP. [/quote]
