So many replies in this post reiterates my belief that the country is going to bell in a hand basket. So many callous people raising children to be just like them.

Open, I'm sorry you are dealing with this. I fear for my child and his future in a world populated by those with such little compassion and ability to look inward. They would rather blame the most vulnerable instead. [/quote]

Disagree.  OP is only giving her side of the story-or what her child has told her.  There are gaps there that we do not know about.  Give the teacher a little benefit--none of us were there, and the situation might be quite different.

Also, OP needs to consider that her child might have been out of line.  Her DS also needs to learn to be considerate of others.  If his special needs are so great that he is not capable of that, then perhaps the story is different.  However, the teacher is trying to teach each child in the class.  You have no idea how many times she and the kids in the class may have accommodated the needs of this child.  The lip balm smeared all over his work may have just been the final straw.

If you read OP's responses, she never seems to concede that her DS needs to adjust his behavior in any way.

Also OP interprets classmates as being intentionally cruel for what boils down to age-appropriate behavior (selecting friends based on commonalities rather than being concerned about including a child who might be viewed as different)[/quote]

Wow. This is akin to victim blaming. 
You tell me me when neurotypical kids pushing, ignoring and talking over another classmate is acceptable in any circumstance. I will wait.
