I am soo mad at that
I'm so mad, I can't even see straight.  It's a wonder I'm even able to type this.  You think that our society is making progress and then you see some ignorant mess like this.  That teacher needs to banned from ever teaching again, and the schools really need a better screening process to weed out nut jobs like her!

I still can't believe a teacher would do such a thing.    It makes one wonder what other sick things she has been teaching those little ones.

Would kinda blow my mind...
... if it wasn't blown already...

That was just sick. I mean, honestly the teacher must be psychotic, totally with empathy. That little kid will remember that moment, be affected by that moment, for the rest of his life.

And I think about the effect this had on the other students; the guilt they must feel. What is scarier is that in some of them a little seed was planted that says, "It's okay to hurt people."

I am confused why the death of her brother has anything to do with the demoralization of the child. The teacher is confusing me to no end.  sam

It is great to see public support for this child. I cannot believe that they would treat him this way. Does the teacher know nothing of autism or asperberger's. You just don't treat people this way.
