[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One clown should not be allowed to halt the circus.

I don't teach ES, but four separate times in my public school teaching career, my students and I have been forced to evacuate a classroom because a disruptive student refused to leave and no adult was able to make the student exit. There is a special frustration in losing instructional time for 29 students as you wander the halls looking for an empty classroom while admin and security try to cajole one child into leaving. I know I am not the only teacher this has happened to. As recently as this school year, my students warned me to never ask "Larlo" to take his binder off the desk. They said that last year, they all had to leave a classroom because he trashed it after a teacher told him to place his binder on a window shelf during a test.[/quote]

I'm sorry this has happened, but every year in this country, hundreds of people die because someone moved or restrained them.

Restraining people, and that includes picking them up and moving them, is dangerous.  It's less dangerous with a Kindergartener, but it's still not something that should happen in schools unless there's truly no other choice.

It is dealing with the bat-shit crazy parents like you who make teachers leave the profession.[/quote]

I'm not a bat-shit crazy parent, I'm a teacher with a specialty in emotional disturbance.  [/quote]
