http://www.tcpalm.com/news/2008/may/24/30gtteacher-lets-students-vote-out-classmate-5/ He's such a beautiful little boy, too. I can't believe a teacher would do that. It's so messed up.
I was socially estranged as a child too. I can only imagine what this child will feel when he gets a bit older and realizes that shit like this is being written about him for the whole world to see.
jesus christ thats cruel, especially for someone who already has probelms relating to others (asbergers n all)... i hope it doesnt screw up him for further friendships n stuff
How is that even legal?! I went through a lot of problems with my older son and his autism...but he has a right to the same free education as everyone else. By law they HAVE to accommodate him. With an Educational Assistant and such. Anyone who tried that kind of shit would have lost their jobs. A disability is a disability. If that kid just needed a wheelchair, would this have happened? Hell no.
Some people at my school have been following the story and as far as I know she hasn't been fired... YET.. but people are working on it. She needs to be fired. What kind of fucking example is that?
Seriously, to intentionally emotionally damage a child like that. And to encourage the other children to treat others that way. Way to make some future bullies.
It says it happened in Florida That kind of thing is damaging. When I was in 2nd grade my teacher was really mean to me, doing things like calling the whole class up to laugh at how my button down shirt was off by one button. Its not good to have that feeling when you are that young
I had a similar experience with a teacher like that when I was in my early days at school, I suffered a similar degree of psychological abuse from a teacher who singled me out as the class fool and encouraged everyone to laugh at me. I carry memories of it which I now don't know if were real or if I conjured them up. These early experiences did not help me develop my social skills very well, and I ended up graduating with a degree in single physics, some years later after I had gone through puberty.
Wow, I don't even know what to say. I was abused by a teacher when I was 7 and holy crap, it's fucked me up in a lot of aspects and I've been pretty socially behind everyone else my age. But that poor kid has it even worse off because he has Asperger's to top it off. I'd be finding a new school to send him to promptly. One whose teachers aren't complete failures at life.
Yeah, apparently he will not be going back to that school. Ahh I wish I could give him a big hug. I can't imagine how that would feel.
I'd be filing a large lawsuit if i were those parents, thank fuck though the kid has loving parents who care more about him than media exposure.
that poor little guy! that is hecka sad. and people wonder why kids grow up to shoot up their peers. as i always say, you can fuck with the mama bear but dont fuck with the cubs. I hope his mom rips that bitch a new asshole.
