CONNIE!.......Re: Robbin (and )

[Guest guest]

Dear ConnieI have no doubt you are an excellent special ed teacher because you are so kind and caring! I wish had a teacher like you:) I just wish I had been strong enough to pursue action against 's abusive teacher so other children wouldn't have suffered as a result. How are you doing, Connie? Did you enjoy your Christmas break? What ages do you teach?hugs SharonThis email is a natural hand made product.

The things that happened to Robbin and made me very sad as I read your emails. I am a Special Ed teacher and I work hard each and every day to make sure my students are treated well and not humiliated in any way. I am sorry that they had such bad experiences at school. Teaching Special ed is not always easy and the students are sometimes very hard to deal with. I have several behavior kids that wear me out with their anger but I know that I can walk out the room and take a deep breath.... and then try again.

I wish that both Robbin and would have had a good teacher !!

Connie

I've been quiet since reading about Robbin. This has brought up some bad memories. What happened to Robbin reminds me of what happened to my granddaughter, , when she was in public school. Kate has Aspergers and was in a special ed class. She had a lousy teacher who made her sit in a little dark room when she didn't do her work like she was supposed to. Kate was scared to death to go to school but we didn't know why. She finally told me what was happening. Sitting in the little dark room wasn't the worst that happened to her. This teacher pinched. Yep, pinched! The school gave us all so much grief when we complained. Finally I contacted the governor's office and they got an advocate for us who tried to help Kate. The school administration and the school board stuck with the teacher and wouldn't do anything to protect Kate. So we pulled her and her siblings out of school and started homeschooling. We have never, ever regretted that decision. Kate has recovered from the abuse she suffered at the hands of that teacher. Our big, major regret is that we didn't pursue legal action or go to the police. hugs to Robbin!

Kids always get the brunt of it, and they are the last ones who need that.

Robbin is the only kid I have ever heard of who "self-punishes". If he does something wrong, which is very rare, he will punish himself. Just now he did something "wrong", which could have damaged his bike but thankfully did not. When I went past his PC just now, he wasn't there. Where are you? He was in his closet! He self-punishes! It is SO cute there are no words....I told him that was not necessary...damn but he is just such an awesome kid!
