Re: The Inhumane 'Autism Cage' Where a Young Boy Was Kept at School
You should have stopped there. The parents of this kid have the same mental problems as you. "Why should I?" "I'll just complain about it." "Let someone else actually pay for my responsibilities." "Liberalism is a mental disorder." |

That was entirely the responsibility of the parents to make sure that the school was up to the job. The parents knew full well that their kid would require intensive extensive and very specialized handling. The just foisted their problem off on someone else by sending them to a basic general education - for normal kids - school. |

Re: The Inhumane 'Autism Cage' Where a Young Boy Was Kept at School
Define normal kid. There is a wide aray of physical and mental disorders and it is oftentimes very dificult to understand and cater to just one. The fact still stands that during the time the child was there, they did not seem to communicate to the parent or psychologist and bought a cell to keep the kid from distracting others, making their job easier. Although there are some severe cases, there are plenty of children that can learn just fine in a school atmosphere. Kids dont come with instruction manuals. When you have any kids you will understand. |

Re: The Inhumane 'Autism Cage' Where a Young Boy Was Kept at School
They do have this. In NC it is called an IEP Individualized Education Plan. They have speech therapists, occupational therapists and life skills classes for those kids who would not function in a classroom setting. There are autistic and special needs kids in regular classes as well but they are generally high functioning. If behavior was that bad they would have intervened. But the parents can demand they be placed in regular classes too even when they are advised this is not a good setting. I know this has happened because my sister works with special needs children. Even when this happens they go out of their way to accommodate them. The principal can choose to not listen to advice and make their own decisions too. Most principals have the master's in education or education administration if that which is not about special needs but more about management type stuff. |

Re: The Inhumane 'Autism Cage' Where a Young Boy Was Kept at School
there was one of these at my high school. it was used for one child specifically. there were times when i would see the kid running down the halls, then the special ed teacher would tackle him. |
