Well, maybe that's my take on what SHOULD happen. Imagine you had a child that was tough to handle, not because he was a bad kid, but because he had a form of autism. Not to the point were the child wasn't functional, just a little difficult to handle. Now imagine you went to pick him up from kindergarden and found out that his classmates had "voted him out" of class.
That's right.
The teacher stood the kid up in front of the class and went through everyone in the class and asked them what they didn't like (the child understood "hated") about him. Then they voted on whether or not the child should be able to stay in class.
Here's the link incase the video doesn't come up.
Sounds to me like the principle needs to vote the teacher out of a job.
I can't say I would blame the mom if she did end up suing the school in this case.
Stupid people.

WOW! This hits way to close to home. Georgia had a little boy in her class this year with Ashberger's syndrome (mild form of Autism) and I must say it has been a nightmare from day 1. This little boy has been aggressive not only to all the other children in the class but has made the teacher bleed as well. Now through all this what I see is a little boy who deserves to be in a classroom where his needs can adaquetly be met without endangering other students. So I can see feel the frustration that the teacher might have felt because I see it in the eyes of Georgia's teacher daily. What is DIFFERENT is the school's handling of the situation. Our school has bent over backwards to make the little boy in our class feel wanted and "validated" most of the time to the point of making the other kids not feel special. So there must be a MIDDLE ground in all of this. These kids need to be recognized as Special needs and delt with in a special setting as such. Very Sad!
