[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What a  bunch of dishonest fear mongering. I'm a mom who volunteers a lot in my kids schools. One of my kids has learning disabilities, they are mild. In 1st grade there was a mom who was so angry that a child with disabilities would be in her child's class, that she pulled her daughter out to homeschool her. She told me to my face that her kid shouldn't have to be in class with mine. My kid isn't intellectually disabled and doesn't have behavior issues. That shouldn't matter any way. You all are that mom.

You people who hate kids with disabilities need therapy.[/quote]

So you met one nasty mom when your child was in first - and that’s awful. However, your argument is utterly without foundation if we’re talking about disruptions and evacuations. No one is “hating kids with disabilities” if they point out that a child that barricades themselves or makes violent threats is a problem and shouldn’t be ruining the school experience of many OTHER kids who are ALSO entitled to an education. It - and you - are so dishonest on that point!

Our country has since the Reagan presidency deliberately undercut school and other social service funding so unfortunately are who send to public legitimately feel they’re in a zero-sum game. But it’s actually refreshing to see people admit, even anonymously, that ODD and future conduct disorder Dx kids have no place nor innate right to terrify and ruin the educational opportunities of those around them. I have a feeling OP felt dismayed about the Newport News case, where that 6 year old almost killed his teacher. Lo and behind, super mom and super dad claim that their little sniper had “severe emotional disabilities.” To hell with ALL OF THEM and the administration. The non future murderer children have been traumatized, terrorized, were routinely evacuated, and after witnessing a teacher they probably were attatched to almost die, they miss a full 2 weeks of instruction after. But hey, LRE!

NO ONE is talking about your DD. No one is talking about dyslexia or OTs in class! Come on.[/quote]

The administration at the school in Newport News ignored the warnings from teachers. You aren't going to see that in most schools. You are so dishonest in your attempt to make it seem like kids with behavior issues are in every class terrorizing your perfect children. Your hysterical view point is a threat to children with disabilities.  The point of the previous post is that you crazy parents don't want your special snowflakes around ANY kids who may be different or in your minds, might slow down the class.

Your ignorance is not just annoying but dangerous for children with sns. There is a process for dealing with children like the one in NN. You have no idea what the parents were or were not doing. That area is known for being horrible wrt sns kids and the administration was probably not providing the supports required in the child's iep. This is on the administration.

Admit it the whole point of these posts is to segregate children with needs you don't understand. [/quote]

I do think that we need tracking in our schools but that’s not what this thread is about. This thread is about getting really disruptive kids out of the classroom. You said that isn’t your daughter though, so you should calm down and get the chip off your shoulder. We aren’t talking about you.[/quote]

I don't care that you're not talking about my kid. Every single time there is a problem at the schools, the parents of nt kids come for the sns kids. [/quote]

That’s because if the nt kids create a problem (which of course happens) they can be and are disciplined. Not true of SN kids. My daughter was literally being punched, kicked and scratched by an ASD girl in her 5th grade class last year. Repeatedly. And we had photos and witnesses. And the only solution the school would offer us was to move OUR daughter to a new class. Absolute bull$hit. [/quote]
