THE “TEACHER’S AIDE THAT is hired to be 1:1 with that special needs kid gets paid about $28,000 for a school year.
THE LARGER MALES MUST HAVE MALE “HANDLERS”.
Or they get 2 on 1 or 3 on one
Of course short staffed so people get hurt all the time
Wanna talk about group homes do not the staff needed and all of them are 90 lb women
Institutions are able to focus a goodly amount of staff on any problem, which prevents the staff or the patient from getting hurt.
When you hear of the second grader led out in handcuffs... you can be sure he or she is much older than grade level and that the child has hurt someone seriously in the past. The newscaster doesn’t say that the child is a 115 lb 10 year old who bites kicks screams and needs six people to hold him down.
I've seen some of these kids in action.
The fact that many are mainstreamed is a sin.
Doctors are diagnosing toddlers with autism at massive rates. It is being used ass an excuse for not teaching a child. My 6-year-old great-grandson is one of those. My daughter insisted that 'he is suppose to be on medication.' So she didn't bother teaching him. I have another granddaughter who was diagnosed and on drugs for 15 years. When her mother died, I found out that though the teen can read a bit, she must use her fingers to add and subtract. Though she doesn't have behavior problems, the school has just stopped teaching her and will graduate her in May.
“It is being used ass an excuse for not teaching a child.”
It’s also being used as an excuse to not correct bad behavior in a child.
As for your great granddaughter still adding with her fingers I know a lot of adults who still do that. We get taught that as a child and it gets embedded. Still though they should have been trying to teach her something, anything.

Stuff like this tells me the schools have lost control. When they whooped kids butt they did not need officers in school. Think about it, when you and I were in school what would they have done to us if we bite or kicked another kid? I know what would have happened, Mrs. Ross would have marched down the hall like General Patton with that paddle of hers and you would have got it!

you get what you put up with, and usually a lot more of it...
The schools have lost control
When you were in school the school did not permit mentally ill or mentally handicapped or sociopathic children to mainsteam in school with you.
They had their own school and residential environments.
So a threat of a spanking would be enough to manage normal socialized children.
But that is not what is going on now.
Because her specialty, though, was a despised stepchild of the system and the principals and staff largely ignored her, she was able to teach some of her students to read and write using banned classical phonetic methods and when those brighter kids were mainstreamed the were way ahead of the normals. She just had to put up all the wall decorations that were supposed to teach "look-say" or "word shapes.'
The incidence of autism has increased directly as the number of preschool inoculations has increased. Autism was unheard of until the advent of diphtheria shots a hundred years ago. Doctors had neve seen it before. When those shots became required for school doctors started seeing this new thing that eventually got named Autism. Almost all the inoculations contain adjuvants to make them more effective but those adjuvants are aluminum and mercury.
In the 80’s I saw autistic children who could not even communicate. Today, autism is declared a spectrum which I realize I was on as a child. Children “on the spectrum” should still be taught and disciplined, but they are not.
I remember the “special schools” around our county. They even had a very nice one for deaf kids. Then all this mainstreaming crap happened. Everything went to pot after that.
Many parents of these kids want their kids in mainstreaming. I honestly think it’s to make them feel better. I’m going to say it and I don’t care who’s toes I step on. These parents do that so they are feel better about not having a retarded child. They can say “see he or she is smart, they are mainstreaming” when in reality their child is still dumber than a box of rocks.
Being in a special school might have taught their child something with the one on one education but now the child is mainstreamed and is learning nothing. In fact is keeping others from learning. The other kids see the retarded kids act out and don’t get into trouble and don’t understand this. I’m sure this creates bad feelings. I don’t know for sure but when you hear about abuse in group homes of special needs people by group home workers do you ever think it is because those workers saw this happen in the schools and are now getting even in some sick twisted way?
You are correct about what parents want.
A lot of the group home abuse is perpetrated by low functioning or immigrant labor. In some other countries
Delayed, or disabled are abused sometimes to death.
