This is just silly. Give a wheelchair to a healthy 12-year-old for a day, and he'll have the time of his life.

...spend a weekend in wheelchairs at a shopping mall and to write a two-page paper about the experience...

I don't think so.

Shame and ridicule are powerful things. They should also be forced to have signs declaring why they are there strapped to the chairs.

Would like to see a follow up on this.

Better yet, he should have made them do all that community service at a hospital for disabled children.

I don't agree...after a couple hours, the "neatness" wears off.

I gotta go with you. The headlines the next day will tell of shoppers who had to dodge two teenagers who spent the day racing each other through the mall in wheelchairs while the security guards couldn't stop them because it was court ordered. The article will also point out how the kids learned to do wheelies and how they learned that it is possible to go down the up escalator in a wheelchair while wearing shades and listening to headphones set on "stun".

True enough... I learned how to do wheelies and stuff in one of those, and had a blast. This sentence is a joke...
