[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sue the oblivion of the state DOE too. Go all the way up to SCOTUS.

We need parents to medicate their kids if the are this violent and disruptive.

It’s no longer acceptable for parents to pass the burden down to everyone else.  If you have a child that can’t walk, you give them a wheelchair. You don’t make other people carry them. [/quote]

+1, although I don't agree with suing because it will do nothing except cost taxpayers MORE money.

I've said this before, but I wish people were required to take courses in logic.   Because there is a general lack of critical thinking skills in our entire country.    Because logic would clearly tell us that a dangerous person, regardless of age, should be kept away from the general public.  Screw his "rights" at that point.  NO ONE has the right to be in public when they are a danger to society at large, and that goes for children that are more minimally disruptive to their classmates too.

But because there is such a lack of critical thinking, people accept that little Johnny's rights are paramount, and we can't have hurt his feelings, disrupt his parents' work schedules, etc. in order to keep him out of school.  There are so many things that just don't make sense.

I actually think this is because it used to be that mildly autistic children were isolated from the general population and never allowed to be mainstreamed.

And some good, caring parents started advocating for them. Which is a good thing. However, under the giant umbrella of good will, parents with violent, dangerous children have abused this umbrella (which is in part because they lack the critical thinking skills to recognize that their kid doesn’t belong there even with the umbrella or in part because they are also sociopaths) and have threatened lawsuits (and have sued and won).

Personally- I think this kid needed a steady diet of lithium and clozapine. [/quote]
