[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All of the above combined is the perfect storm and why it is so complicated.
-screen addiction
-SM/societal pressures 
-parenting roles have changed from Dr  Spock to gentle parenting
-schools being measured by numbers of POC suspended/expelled (higher numbers = not good and administrators can get in trouble)
-less discrete classes/more inclusion means kids aren't getting the services/supports they need to be successful 
-special ed funding has beed decimated because the LRE (Least Restrictive Environment) is cheaper

The result is what we are all seeing:
-burnt out, exhausted teachers, most doing their very best in an awful situation
-administrators who's hands are tied, what consequences can they give to students who at best have parents won't follow through, and at worst will have parents sue, and at the same time having high consequences gets them in trouble with their bosses
-disruptive kids not having consequences which leads to more and bigger disruptions 
-disregulated kids not getting the help and services so that they can get the education they deserve 
-neurotypical kids not getting the education they deserve[/quote]
