[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All of you who have written off entire groups of kids as worthless, disposable people who should be kept separate "in their own school" (makes my stomach turn just typing it) are a new low for DCUM.

I hope you aren't passing your nastiness onto your kids. Hopefully they'll be bigger people than you and actually give a shit about others. [/quote]

OMG - are you serious??? No one said anything about these kids eing worthless and disposable. But, they don't belong in regular public school. They have issues and problems that you can't even imageine. They need a level of support that a public school can not provide. They are disruptive to other kids. They fight, they act-up, they have no respect for anyone or anything. I know it is hard for many people to believe that this type of environment exists in affluent MCPS so I invite you and your child to come spend the day at our school. I guarantee that your stomach will turn for other reasons.[/quote]

I care deeply about "these"  kids and spent an entire career dedicated to helping them (though some sadly cannot be helped).  That being said, I do not want my own kids in school with them-it's that simple.  As a parent it is my job to protect my kids-sending them into the "lions den" every day would be doing just the opposite.  I want my kids to feel safe, not have to worry about being violated or harrassed, and to be in a place that fosters learning.  Sadly many of the "bad" schools are lacking in so many ways-some of these kids do need more restrictive school settings, or to be institutionalized due to severe mental illness or sociopathic behaviors.  Sad but true and I say to hell with being "PC" at this point-it is survival of the fittest![/quote]
