This incident shows how difficult it is to fairly handle children with disruption-causing disorders.
The teacher obviously wanted to get her students back in order, and Alex wouldn’t/couldn’t let that happen. He was obviously in the wrong classroom.
The vote was a complete act of cruelty and, I think, revenge from a teacher who had had it and just didn’t want any more to do with Alex.
“I’m NOT special. I’m NOT special.” I have tears running down my cheeks as I think about the despair that young boy was feeling. Five years old.
Or this vote was a wake up call for a disruptive student that may have autism or may not have autism.
A jury of his peers told him they weren’t going to put up with his disruptive behavior. I’m sorry his feeling are hurt by the truth of his actions, but the teacher only confirmed what her class was thinking.
The real message here is that if you don’t like Lil Alex the police will investigate why you do not and arrest your teacher so that the kid you don’t like will feel good about himself.
When I was was the kindergarten pest I got spanked.
