Regular kids? Who the hell knows?[/quote]

This type of reasoning bothers me. To put it in a stark way, the kids who are non verbal and unlikely to be largely productive members of society as adults will be able to attend school, but the future doctors/ nurses/ teachers/ etc will be made to sit out. How can a society function if this is our priority?

I know this sounds cold hearted. I’m thinking big picture on purpose with my musings. But what if hospitals functioned the same way- in Italy for example if 2 people needed a hospital bed and one was 85 and had heart disease and one was 30 and healthy, the 30 year old got it. It seems like with schools this plan would only offer in person  education to the most frail. [/quote]

You do realize a LOT of kids with IEPs will go on to be contributing members of society. Who knows they could be nurses and scientist sure, they could also be the farmers, grocery store works, postal service members, janitorial staff, teachers, social workers, trucker, plumbers, or 101 other essential employees actually running this country right now.[/quote]
