[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] [quote=Anonymous]What do you think you and your child will get out of this? If you don't look at the preceding events how is this worthwhile? I think it points to a teacher who does not know what they are doing. [/quote]

:shock:

You really think the reason your kid melts down is because the teacher has no idea what they’re doing?

Wow. I feel sorry for teachers who have to deal with parents like you.

NP. I regularly see teachers and administrative staff mid-handle discipline incidents making them worse than they needed to be. Many school systems and teachers use shaming, stern voices, negative commands and intrusive body language when disciplining both NT and Special ed kids.

One of the best things about our SN elementary was that they listened to us when it came to disciplining our child with a language disorder.  In a regular school, teachers often demanded that DC explain on the spot why he did something, and when he couldn’t or said  “I don’t know” they would continue to badger and berate him for being insubordinate.  He is a kid who needs time alone to process things and settle his emotions. When teachers refuse to give him that and label him “bad” it’s no surprise that he melts down.

I have also witnessed many other similar situations with other students, and it’s even worse for students of color.  they don’t call it the school to prison pipeline for nothing.[/quote]
