[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I truly cannot understand the patent defense of violent children- disabled or not- throughout this thread.

As a special education teacher I can promise you, the ‘everyone in gen Ed’ model is not only failing students, it’s creating real and lifelong trauma. To the student and their peers.

What a gross oversimplification to think that putting those kids in a more restrictive program is comparable to prison or that if only their needs were met, or mental health provided- that this would get better.

It won’t. Real harm is happening. and all these keyboard warriors who have never taught, or been on a crisis team, should spend less time typing and more time volunteering at their kids schools. Or better yet- go volunteer at a title I school, where families can’t afford an advocate and so students don’t even have a chance at receiving appropriate services and supports. [/quote]

Who is more culpable? The 6-year-old child with disabilities? Or the school system with a $3.2 billion budget that refuses to provide the necessary supports to create a safe and effective educational environment?[/quote]
