Oh, how horrible....and so sad...and so disgusting and so disenchanting....this is so discouraging to me.

I am not sure if anyone here has posted a link to this story, I received the story from another support group I belong to. A little girl with Asperger's in Idaho was arrested at school after having a melt down due to being physically restrained by her teachers. This story hit home for me as it is almost a replay of what my son went through 2 years ago after his diagnosis, the school he attended had no idea what to do with an Asperger's kid, my son was in melt down mode daily. The link is pasted bellow.
