[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some people are really confusing common needs like ADHD with more severe emotional desabilities (ED). ADHD kids are fine for me, as a teacher. I kind of like the energy they bring, and I don't care if they talk too much or can't sit still. But some ED kids can be scary - literally. Not all of them, of course, but many. They are unpredictable and tend to have sudden outbursts instead of just constant wiggliness. In a class of 30-35, like at some elementary schools in FCPS, this is impossible for a teacher to safely deal with. And yet, admin insists that a good teacher can, and if you can't, then you're a bad teacher. Hence.....a six year old shoots a teacher. [/quote] Yep. I can’t believe no one has brought this up yet. The whole thing illustrates everything said in this thread. [/quote]
