The only change I see is for you the parent to put your son in a special needs environment where their are professionals who know how to deal with his condition, shame on you! The handcuffs where not only to protect the staff, the students but also form himself, be thankful no children where hurt or you would be sued for negligence
I agree with you. But the article says they can’t afford a special needs environment.
So the schools are stuck with these kids. Schools which barely handle functional kids; but sure as hell cannot handle dysfunctional ones.
From the article...
“She said she has also tried to enroll her son into schools for autism, but she can’t afford it.”
