This is why I didn't follow the teaching route with my history degree. I can't stand little kids, and I would much rather hide in an archives or a museum collection storage all day where nobody would find me and I don't have to deal with little retarded shiats.

They used to surround the spazzy kid and their desk inside a cardboard fridge box when I was in grade 4. I'm not sure how that was punishment, they were in there giving the finger and picking their nose and playing with their Ninja Turtle figures.

Picking my nose and playing with Ninja Turtles sounds more productive than some of my high school classes.

Yeah, I remember sitting in class a few years ago when Tucker Max was promoting his book and that happened to be part of a collective of blogs. Fire on the Line was good as well.

"isolate special needs students who are disruptive in the classroom."

I have no problems with this.

School is for eductation, not for baby sitting.

Why does our society, in it's headlong race to the bottom, instead think it is OK to drag the rest of the class down to the level of a screaming, hissy fit throwing retard?

Hands!?!? You're lucky. Me and my thirty-six brothers and sisters had one hand to share amongst ourselves! And don't even get me started on breath! We were lucky to get a paper sack full of air and stale cigarette smoke to breathe a day!

They should hire some SPED teachers. Or some better SPED teachers.

Well dad would whop us every night until a quarter after twelve, then he'd get too tired and he'd make us whop ourselves. Then he'd chop me into pieces, and play Frisbee with my brain, and let me tell you junior you ain't never heard me complain when I was your age.

That is what I wonder.

My mom is a teacher for the local school district. She has all sorts of stories about how kids, who are going to weak Velcro shoes their whole lives, get placed in with the general student population. It's stupid and unfair, both for the normal kids and the handicapped kid. Unfair for the normal kids because their education is disrupted, unfair for the slow kit because they are not receiving education tailored to their abilities so they might get SOMETHING out of school.

I'd be pissed off too if my kids had to listen to screaming retards while they tried to learn long division.

Because a tapestry of laws have been passed which allows a parent to sue a school district back to the stone age if they don't supply their child every single learning opportunity they demand once the child falls under the IDEA or 504 laws.

When I was in elementary school we had something similar...and of all the things my school should be absolutely ashamed of...this isn't one of them.

/I did a lot of damage to myself when I was little to the point many of the school administrators thought I was abused at home...I was a very unhappy kid.
//honestly I don't think anyone knew how insane I was.
///Probably because I didn't trust anyone.

No bullshiat story-- I was in Kindergarten in an Austin suburb in 1981. Mostly white kids whose parents were IBM employees with a few Mexican kids from across the tracks-- they always were the ones who got free lunches, had lice, rode the bus, etc--

Anyways-- We had the only black teacher in the school. Ms Bowman was her name and looking back, she hated Mexicans. Angie Rivera and her brother, Carlos Rivera (AKA Stinkbomb) were both in my kindergarten class. I think they were together because they both only spoke Spanish. Our school was overcrowded and our classroom was what used to be the teacher's lounge and had a large textbook closet in the back of the room.

During nap time, since the Mexicans were feared to have lice and never brought their own blanket to nap on, Ms Bowman would simply put the Mexicans in the book closet, turn out the lights and when Angie would cry and piss herself, Ms Bowman would bang on the door and tell them that it they didnt stop, the boogieman would get them both.

Carlos and Angie are both in Prison today.. Good times, Good times.

What is the difference between a time-out room with a few chairs and a solitary confinement room, aka 'the hole'?

If kids are flipping out so much they can't even sit down and be quiet then it is not the schools problem. Police, parents, mental health center. I don't know. Somewhere the school became creative and lost their course.

/I know, give the teachers multi-function stapler-tasers...
 
2012-01-11 07:44:53 PM
What the fark is wrong with everybody in that story? They're not pissed as shiat over the potentially inhumane treatment of the special needs kids, but in an uproar because their own speshul snowflakes are "subjected" to the screaming and are scared?

Jesus fark.

Yeah well, this is what happens when you let retards live. You have to deal with them. If certain women would have made smarter choices based on how to deal with their defective plumbing, we wouldn't be having this discussion right now.

I've heard it argued that the severely retarded are "God's clowns" and that it's A-OK to have them running around (since they are liable to provide an inexhaustible stream of humor and merriment to others). While I won't deny that they can indeed be extremely amusing at times (when they're not your problem and you're in no direct danger of having their bodily fluids smeared on you or being otherwise assaulted), I don't think it justifies the immense drain on society (for which there will never, ever, be any sort of return). Aside from that, there's the whole psychological aspect; as far as how drooling, snotty tards affect everyone else who might see, hear, smell, or (god forbid) touch them.

Ladies and gentlemen: There's nothing wrong with that crack stem you have there, but please be smart about it:

Use protection and, if all else fails, evict your tard-fetuses post-haste! - Before it's too late!

They're also responsible for many people's lack of religious faith.

The jobs routinely available in any district are SPED teachers, because it is glorified baby sitting. If you want a job as a teacher, you gotta do the SPED work. One mom who had her teaching degree started out doing SPED classes and found she could not get out of them and advance to anything else after three years of piss and shiat. She put out apps in some other district and got in non-sped class quickly.

No shiat, did you go to the same school as I did? Central Illinois area? This was 6th grade when when I witnessed the screw-up student get put in the fridge box, but similar story.

When I was in Jr. High, the school board had the brilliant idea of "mainstreaming" all the learning disabled and special education kids into the regular schools. They used to have their own school, where they could be controlled, but this was 'demeaning" so every school got a few of them.

It was ridiculous.

No one one could control them them, the roamed the halls like a pack of wolves, beating up people, flinging poo (I am not joking), and destroying everything they came in contact with.

Even the ones who were not violent disrupted class continually, and basically caused lots of trouble.

After they hospitalized a teacher by hitting her in the head with a desk, the school system authorized the building of "quiet rooms." These were, I kid you not, padded rooms with a drain in the floor, locked from the outside. They built crazy rooms!

And everyone was made happier, especially when they hired a new "coach" whose previous job just happened to have been as security in a mental ward. Guy was a gorilla, and his only job was to coral the violent ones.

And somehow this was better than the special school where they had doctors on staff, a higher teacher to student ratio, and orderlies.

Give the parents two options. 1) come and pick the kid up each time, they are done for the day. If you don't get them within half an hour they are out for the month. 2) scream room. What do you bet that suddenly 2) looks pretty good.
