I doubt the “pandemic” has anything at all to do with it.

What the ‘tards did in “response” is another matter entirely.

Many kids are struggling. Is special education the answer?

Not special education but EDUCATION is at fault.

[[Schools contending with soaring student mental health needs and other challenges have been struggling to determine just how much the pandemic is to blame]]

Once again, they ignore the elephant in the room, ie crt and sexual indoctrion and racial divides and constant gaslighting about everything from gender to climate crap being passed as “education” these days

They have kids so freaked out over “white supremacy”, causing them to hate themselves, freaked about uttering the wrong personal pronoun, and freaked over the environment, thinking we are all doomed, and freaked about “racist statues of historical,figures”, and freaked out about not being a tyranny when all the “cool kids are”, that it’s no wonder these kids are mentally disturbed now!

If she can perform well at night, but not the day then she doesn’t belong in Special Education classes.

The answer is to abolish public school and get rid of lesbian teachers

Well, keeping her daughter in a public school certainly won’t help the daughter’s mental issues and will likely make them far worse.

--- "Schools contending with soaring student mental health needs and other challenges have been struggling to determine just how much the pandemic is to blame. Are the challenges the sign of a disability that will impair a student's learning long term, or something more temporary?"

No matter the answer to these sorts of questions, this becomes more evidence of an attack on the West in general, as ginned up by a mix of population explosion fanatics, "hack" the body with mRNA technology and, quite evident, "lock down" Western economies, all of which benefit the aims of the ChiComs, Western Leftist elite and their supporters.

Gates is an example, but one of many, who embody these facets all in one gestalt, as one recalls Gates saying that the ChiComs were combating Covid correctly, and as the Gates-supported WHO were and are busy trying to get Western nations to cede to their authority based on "health." Other examples may be found in Obama who'd said that China could "get things done" that were difficult in the US, and in the EU Commission elite who wanted the "green pass" surveillance state since long before the so-called pandemic.

One also observes this in the larger frame that the SARS CoV2 "pandemic" has generated the following data point -- the almost three-year mortality rate for the "severe" and "deadly" virus is 0.0836 percent, making the survival rate for the entire population over the same period to be 99.92 percent.

For this, surveillance state digital passes, mandated jabs and lock downs of whole economies have been proposed again and again. The connections between these "dots" are glaringly visible now.

My oldest son was born in San Diego. He arrived with heart problems and ADHD. The ADHD could not be treated with the usual drugs because of the heart problems. He literally managed to get kicked out of kindergarten the 2nd day of school. Kaiser finally assembled a team in Los Angeles and a 10 hour open heart surgery repaired the sub-aortic stenosis. After recovering, he was able to tolerate medications to deal with the ADHD. He still needed special ed with an IEP. San Diego did a decent job of supporting him. He had 3 more open heart surgeries, two artificial heart valves and a pacemaker before he graduated from high school. When we moved to Idaho, he was accepted into the Geology program at Idaho State University. He died 2 weeks after his 32nd birthday. A Z-Pak prescription resulted in cardiac death (extended QT interval and a pacemaker in need of replacement).

Having experienced "special ed" in San Diego in the 80s, it was far more competent than what we experienced in Pocatello in 2001. I can speak for the current state having left San Diego in early 2001.

I've long advocated, taking most classes and providing best of class computer software to teach it.

The software should

I'm not sure how much this would help ADHD and/or anxiety. But I'm sure it would help ADHD remain focused. And as long as feedback is provided on progress, I'd think knowing they are on track would help anxiety.

It seems like there has been an explosion in anxiety and ADHD. What's behind it.

My daughter has ADHD. Straight A student, went to private college on full tuition scholarship. But noticed a problem when simple routine tasks took her over 10 times longer than it should have. She asked to be tested and was diagnosed.

After reviewing the symptoms, there is a very very high probability that I have it too. And likely her mom, so she inherited a double dose. My son missed out completely.

The Scamdemic planners take delight in the torture and torment of children.

Next up forced toxic injections per the CDC to attend school. Save your kids and DO NOT COMPLY!

What we need is a complete overhaul of the government school system, it is failing and getting worse.

Between the effects of the lockdowns and the “woke” and gender bending crap being taught to our kids, we have lost an entire generation. This generation of kids be emotionally crippled, barely literate and gender confused their whole lives.

No, as the husband of a special educator and former school administrator. The vast majority of kids on special education IEPs lack parenting that promotes the ethic and discipline required to be even a marginally successful student.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
