1) Social pressure by the media and special interest groups
2) Fear of legal action
It is pitiful to see that kids like this, representing maybe 2% of the student population get 100% of the attention 95% of the time.
The root cause is that they get no control at home and don't act any differently when in public.
Fear of legal action? Really it’s them that would fear legal action. If and when their kids attacks it is the parents of the victim that sues. Maybe besides just suing the school they need to sue the parent of these kids as well.
“The root cause is that they get no control at home and don’t act any differently when in public.”
Funny you should say that. I’ve notice that parents of autistic children often condone their bad behavior by just saying “well he’s autistic”. Well so what? There are kids with other illnesses who don’t misbehave so why does your kid not behave?
Then when their child is arrested they have hissy fits. I don’t care anymore. Arrest the brat then maybe he will learn to behave in society like a decent person.
