I work in ESE. Give me twenty minutes alone with these bullies. I’m little, but I have rage issues. I’m a one-on-one with an extremely difficult ASD child. She’s not easy, in fact she can be extremely rough to be around (46 lbs — but she can trash a classroom in the blink of an eye, throws her poop, and has gone after me with scissors.)
I love this kid, and I know when to tap out and get some help from my co-workers. The thought of injuring her, abusing her, etc — is just beyond my comprehension.
Jail these sadists, throw away the key.
I’ve seen the other extreme you might say working in nursing homes.
I’ve seen rail thin 90+ year old women beat the living daylights out of men and women 70+ years younger than them.
