Hello all, my wife and I are the proud parents of a 12 year old boy

afflicted w/autism ASPERGER's SYNDROME, is the center of our

life, is our joy and our world. We learned of 's affliction

when was 3 the date was April 1, 1999 that was the day I

believed my world ended so I thought. You see in May 20 1999 our 5th

wedding anniversary my mother was diagnosed w/teminal lung cancer and

passed on Sept 27 1999, so the rest of my year existed in a bottle

and fog. I stopped drinking on December 24 of that year when

came to me and said " Daddy you are the best DADDY on the world "

something I will never forget. Being a former police officer I could

not understand why was having difficulty w/learning and

understanding the simpilest things then we recieved that diagnosis.

My wife and I knew loved the water so we moved to Florida and

let him swim his heart out, he was in a great school up until he

started middle school, he developed a much more serious problem as

the children in his ESE class began to ridicule harrass and cause him

such pain that he was lashing out at them as well as the teacher so

much so that he was suspended. Now at his IEP meeting the SRO Student

Resource Officer informed me that in the event of an outburst he

would arrested, cuff and transprot to a juvenile detention

center. I advised this SRO that in no uncertain terms would that

occur if HE did not want to see himself in the in ER or morgue,now in

his IEP a note from his DR clearly states that none of this is to

occur and if an outbursy does occur or if does get anxious he

shall call Dad or Mom and we will come get him no time out rooms

nothing like that, well on September 28 2006 the proverbial hit the

fan and had his fill w/the taunting ridicule and harassment and

he did suffer an outburst and the " professional educator " tried to

physically out in a time out room when he pulled away, she tried

to grab him again and a natural reaction was to swing at the hand, he

did strike her, she lead him to the office and filed a complaint

against indicating she was in fear of her safety. Now when I see

this woman I see an Amazon being from Illinois I have never heard of

a complaint being filed against an individual in a school setting

where the " educators " are aware of the existing possibility of this

type of response/reaction. The lack of juvenile laws in FL amaze me

and the lack of education on the part of the police and " educators "

outright floors me.

What I hope to find out is that do any of you parents of these angles

know of an advocate in the Sarasota/Tampa area? I feel this school

system needs a lesson for I was speaking to the assistant principal

this day and asked if she was aware of 's IEP, her response was I

don't need to know about his IEP, well according to the IDEA she

does, then according to a counselor at the school I was advised the

school was not ready for , BUT, according to meetings we had in

March 2005, May 2006 and again August 2006 the school was ready.

I feel the school board as well as the school failed and we need

to look further into some type of disciplinary actions against the

school system, since they can discipline my son and not follow

federal law, their actions indicate arrogance, pompousity and an

attitude that needs adjusting, they obvioulsy need a lesson in due

process the IDEA.

So my friends, please, forward any advise, comments, anything you

might feel advantageous in my attempt to seek justice for my son.

God bless,

Excop32
