      My sons got autism we realized it before any teachers were involved it took two years for the state to get him tested after he started school and the school finally realized there was something different about him we don’t all deny it some of us understand it and try our best to help our child through life btw the reason it took two years is there was only one counseling office that could dignose him small town 😂 anyway wasn’t trying to sound like I was complaining just letting you know we ain’t all like that

      Parents of autistic children are more often than not speaking/acting on behalf of what they know to be in the best interest of their child.
      They know when they’re child comes home and doesn’t “act strong” anymore because there’s no classmates, no teachers, no possibility of getting in trouble/losing snack time or recess, so they can cry if it hurt to go potty or lie in the dark for an hour unable to eat or do homework and now hating themselves with a migraine/to regulate because they were overwhelmed/underwhelmed by being made to play with so many kids/couldn’t finish the book they were reading at lunch, all because a Special Ed teacher said they did X just fine at school.
      A couple (or more) of these Special Ed stories not only beg the question, but scream them.

    I still remember the first time I ever did my homework. After my mum got custody of me, and I began to have a normal/stable home life, I settled in through the end of year 3, and in year 4, the magical moment happened. I was left alone in my quiet bedroom, for once not being overstimulated with my Autism, and just... Sat down at my desk, looked it over, started doing it, and *liked it*. Being able to sit alone, no distractions, nobody trying to talk to me and confusing my fragile brain. That's all it took. Just being left alone and in a calm, protective environment.

      That's so enlightening, as most of us who aren't "on the spectrum" were so lacking in self discipline and got so bored at homework time that we had to fight the impulse to pick up a comic book or something (now it would be the cell phone, of course). And that's where you thrived!

    One of my English teachers made a rule of if you forget your book then you can borrow a book if he could take one of your shoes. (Which, in any other circumstance would be horrible, because not only are you forced to walk on the nasty carpet if you needed anything, but your publicly shamed.)

She says "He lives in his own apartment and I give him $1000 CDN per week in spending money and I'm afraid he's wasting it." "Welp, he hasn't been here all semester but a lot of the students in our school party with him so I'd say probably" "I don't know how to get him to come to school. What can I do to help him?" "My first step would be that he doesn't get any money unless he shows up to school" "Oh no, I can't do that". "Well then I don't know how to help you and we're wasting our time here"

      I know when they got there (I stayed behind) they didn’t have money for private German lessons, so they attempted to get free group lessons, paid for by the German government of course. There were only so many spots available, so they got put on a waitlist, and said waitlist gave priority to the immigrants/refugees from Africa, the Middle East, etc. They ended up back in America after four months with nothing to their names.
      In other words, they hate immigrants and they hate the government giving stuff to people. So they decided to become immigrants and demand that a different government give them free stuff.
      At one point before this, my father stated that the reason Germany/Europe doesn’t have black and Hispanic people living there is because those countries don’t have welfare and food stamps.

She understands what is being said, but only speaks about 5 words which are hard to understand. She can’t count past five. She only knows a few letters. The school district does not want her to repeat kindergarten and is insisting she go to main stream 1st grade class. I really believe she could learn reading and math if she were in a special Ed class, but nope she has to be main stream.

One day the student ask my friend’s mom to use to bathroom, and she let him use only it took a long time to use. So she went in the boys bathroom and caught the student and probably another (I couldn’t remember what my friend told me) filling the urninals with toilet paper looking like it was clogging up the bathroom. Anyway she set up the meeting for the student’s dad and for some reason, the dad believed his own son.

    "If you refuse class because we're watching a movie and tell a sob story about your dog dying, you get ISS. Today and tomorrow." I left the room, went to my history teachers classroom (it was a break period for her, and she was grading papers.) I told her (through sobbing) what the other teacher did. She was livid. I have never seen her that angry. She asked me to call my mom so they could talk. My mother confirms that yes, my dog had died very early that morning and that he died next to me.

Before i alwaus had to hold my moms hand when walking and never learned how to use a cane until college thx to my mom never letting me learn independent skills. My lil sis has ADHD. my mom refused to believe she had any chi and everyone kept telling her she did my mother never got her tested. My sister struggled with school lot when she was younger. It wasn't until she started middle school around fifth grade was when she finally got tested by a teacher and was diagnosed with ADHD. She got Hopewell School after that and has been doing great. But my mother refuses to let her take medication because she still does not believe she has ADHD.

    As a kid I was always stressed about getting separated from my parents, I've always been easily distracted and I think I had an few bad experiences getting lost in stores and crowded places because some random thing had caught my interest. So I was really scared of it happening again.
    I think having something along the lines of a leash would have really helped me, I could have had the freedom to look around and explore alittle, knowing that I was still within a few feet of my parents. I wouldn't have needed to check where my mom was every 5 seconds or hang onto her hand at all times.

    Not a teacher, well sorta. I used to provide respite/hab and sometimes be a homeschool tutor. Anyway i really liked working with this family and they were always good to me and i ended up working with them for over 5 years. However after a while it started to become clear that they didnt get how much trouble their kid had with math.
    Real quick, the kid had autism and was like 12 when i started working with him and 18 when i stopped. He was really bright and quite high functioning (even compared to myself who also has autism). I won't give too many details to protect his identity but he was even such an expert at a certain niche scientific field that he impressed a University professor/expert in that field to the point where he was invited to study more on campus and show off his knowledge when he was just 15. He just couldn't do math to the point where as a sophomore in high school he still needed his fingers to add and couldn't multiply and divide without a lot of reminders. His parents kept insisting that he take the same class that most kids were taking. Unfortunately algebra/geometry just were not possible with that level of impairment so we an hour+ a day with him every day just trying to teach him math. It was a mess and i don't know how teachers kept passing him. Thankfully it finally broke his junior year and they let him take a more basic math class.
    To be fair to his parents, they wanted him to get a full diploma and stupid state requirements said that was what it required. I get not giving a full diploma to someone who only takes life skills classes, but he was taking all normal classes outside of math and getting mostly Bs with obvious As in science. It's stupid to torture a kid for a diploma in a situation like that
    To the best of my knowledge he was forced to get the lesser diploma but he's still interning at the university despite not being able to attend. I don't think attendance would have worked even with a diploma as he had a hard time getting what he knew out so him writing college level papers would have been near impossible, even high school level papers were very hard for him. Still hes able to do what he loves just fine without a degree so here's hoping he makes a big discovery and can name it after himself.

    Oh and regarding all the stories about parents being in denial that their kid needs to be in special ed... some times the parents are actually RIGHT about that.
    I was put in a special ed class when I was in the 3rd grade because my teachers insisted I couldn't read. My parents tried to tell them I was reading just fine at home which was actually true. I had actually first learned to read before I even started school in the first place. My older brother actually does have a learning disability and my parents had bought hooked on phonics to help him catch up in school. He's 5 years older than me and since we were doing this at home I was basically learning from books intended for a 4th grader before I was even in Kindergarten.
    The real issue I was having at school is that my English class was the first class of the school day and I had undiagnosed insomnia so it wasn't that I couldn't read it was that I was freaking exhausted from lack of sleep.
    In my case being put in special ed actually stunted my education because once I was in that class we kept reviewing the same things we had already learned over and over again every single year. It was super easy for me because I literally was only being taught the things I already knew for YEARS so even when they did eventually try to put me back into a regular ed class room they were reviewing stuff I had never been taught so I literally had no clue what the hell they were talking about the entire time I was there.
    Pretty much the bulk of my education I picked up OUTSIDE of school.
    One of my co-workers joked about how she was the dumbest of the smart kids cause all her classes were AP, I was the smartest of the dumb kids cause I wasn't even suppose to be there in the first place. I was literally helping other kids in my class with their assignments cause I was the only one who actually understood what the assignment was.

      Constant hell is an understatement sadly, I spent 18 years undiagnosed with autism, so when I acted out they saw me as a kid having a temper tantrum and called me lazy for not trying hard enough and to stop having my head in the clouds, one time two teachers made fun of me when I started swinging my arms around, mimicking it with exageration, freaking laughing with other kids watching.

    • @duckymouth
      @duckymouth ปีที่แล้ว +5

      I was diagnosed with autism, more specifically aspergers, when I was 8. This was much worse than what I'd imagine hell to be. I was constantly emotionally and verbally abused by the staff, manipulated, personal possessions stolen, screamed at for not looking directly at a teacher, staff would sit down next to me just to insult me, they would revoke basic human rights such as a right to education and would constantly lock the toilets because "going to the toilets isn't a right" even though it is, I checked. I told them I was scared of balloons popping so then one time they took me out of class (it was also a class I liked) to tie balloons to my feet and force me to jump on them to make them pop loudly. I would say "I don't know" a lot when I was stressed out and I remember I didn't know the answer to a question so the music teacher said "you never know" and then made me stay in until I understood something but I didn't understand it since I was too stressed out to do anything so I had to stay in for all of lunch for no reason. I also got punished for wearing a jacket when it was cold and in the winter and the heating was turned off. There wasn't even a rule that said you can't wear jackets. They even thought I was faking crying to get out of class. I was having a panic attack. Once they put me in a different math class, they said it was so it would put it at my level, I would instead consider it mocking me. It was a class with people that didn't know how to read, let alone do math. The questions were things like 2 + 2 or 5 x 10. This was in high school. I completed the questions and they would reward me with an obviously fake "hooray! You did it!" in a way that sounded like they though I had the mental capacity of a 5-year-old. Overall, this was much, much worse than hell.

      @GhostCryProductions ปีที่แล้ว +2

      As a person with autism, I’ve become the de facto autism guru for my extended family. Typically it’s a parent who just learned that their child is on the spectrum and don’t know what to do with that knowledge. More so for their child’s academic K-12. I usually tell them about my experience and what my parents did for me: IEP meetings, coordinating with in-school specialists, talking with the teachers, and so forth. The most important advise I give to parents though is that they’ll have to fight most of the battles for their child to get the services they’ll need in order to succeed; to fight tooth and nail for them if a school doesn’t have the their best interests at heart. I also warn the parent that their child will become an adult at some point and avoid robbing them of opportunities to improve themselves as independents. I also warn them that every case is different so their mileage will vary.

Turns out the answer was always right and had always been right. I called the teacher and she said in a snotty voice... "Well he copied the question down wrong off the board and isn't doing the right question." He hated school so bad after that that he failed the grade. The teacher was eventually asked to leave.

    I got one, it might be controversial but whatever, let people be themselves and judge by actions and nothing else.
    So a friend got asked to be one of her foster son’s history teacher after she confronted the teacher about her terrible teaching (she was giving kids wrong info and would not budge about it being wrong) and my friend did teach history but she also let the kids guide the lesson some by talking about things that they wanted to learn about. This included fashion going from the 1920s to modern times and of course sex ed. by then the students had gotten comfortable enough with my friend to tell her anything. Several students came out to her and she told them and the class that it was ok and there was nothing wrong with them for being gay or bi or trans or whatever. One girl said her dad would kill her if he found out she was gay. Friend had her call her dad in class on speaker and tell him. Listening to the conversation friend interrupted the dad by telling him if he really loved his daughter he’d let her be whatever she wanted and love her regardless before hanging up. The dad and another kid’s mom stormed into class on two separate occasions to scream at friend for brainwashing their kids and the girl’s dad even assaulted friend. The kids were high schoolers.

    Story 22: If the parents are that religious, I bet the Beauty and the Beast thing was based on how the entire plot basically revolved around an instance of witchcraft, a supernatural power from a source other than God. My parents were never this bad, but they were always hesitant about that kind of subject material, so it seems like it might be something similar here. For example, I had to wait a bit to play pokemon yellow because my parents caught wind of the fact that one of the gym leaders had psychic powers. Though eventually they realized the game wasn't actually taking a stance on the subject and greenlit it. And for those curious, they chilled out over time.

That is called teacher’s magical powers and every great teacher has that power. My kindergarten teacher especially. She was so sweet and I literally almost cry from the joy of seeing the kindergarten kids enjoying their kindergarten years as it’s so pure and sweet. Oh how I hope that those kids never change. But funny thing about my first day of first grade was the teacher was showing us the route right and you know where I asked when I saw that the toy area from my old classroom was replaced by Books? I asked her flat out, “ where are the toys?” And I could visibly see the teacher trying her best to contain her laughter. I’m in fifth grade now and I still laugh at it. That teacher is no longer in our school sadly but I still reminisce about that day and it’s funny.

    Okay, so important caveat here: disabled/autistic students may be incredibly gifted in academics but need accommodations to do well.
    A teacher's aide wanted to put me into the "special ed" curriculum because I was obviously disabled. In that context, it would have meant limiting my learning because of stereotypes. Luckily, other people had more sense. I got the accommodations I needed and was top of my class... for high school and university.
    Sometimes I wonder if these cases are parents in denial or whether ableism is affecting school employees' judgment. Ableism can distort the perceptions of both parents and school employees such that they set inappropriate expectations of the child (either too strenuous or too lax) instead of realistically evaluating their aptitudes and need for accommodations

    I am a preschool assistant teacher, and most parents at this age are completely understanding that their kids (1) aren't perfect and (2) are entirely on their own developmental schedules. I have had two parents in different years specifically request that their toddler NOT be potty trained. Both kids were crying and screaming that they had to go, but we had to abide by the parents' wishes. Parent #1 didn't want a "regression" after they moved in a month's time (completely normal even in the best of situations, and the groundwork laid today will still be there tomorrow). Parents, if you're so lucky to be in this position, GO WITH IT. Both kids ended up with many problems down the line because their initial requests were ignored.

I was lucky that my parents were a bit more relaxed about the movies with magic in them, but no Harry Potter. However when my grandmother was home for the summer I was encouraging not to watch movies that even hint of magic or evolution so that she'd leave me alone. I know that some other people in the religion were just as bad as my grandmother and worse. I was also raised to respect other people's beliefs and that their opinions didn't have to affect mine. And in turn, not to force my beliefs and opinions on others.

I call for my co-worker and she helps pry him off me. She puts him in time-out while I go and clean the wound in my arm because he bit me so hard he drew blood.
    His mother was mortified. Not by the bite wound in my arm that a feral cat would be jealous of, but because of all the diseases he'll catch from my blood. She said all of this could have been avoided if we just let him do what he wanted. She threatened to pull her kid from the daycare, but it was more like a gift from god to my co-worker and I because not a day went by without him having a nuclear-grade meltdown over sharing toys or our choices of snacks. But the Karen Cherry on the Bitch Sundae was that she said that she'd to go to the authorities and sue us if he got sick.
    The brat remained in the daycare until the day I was laid off and as far as I know was still enrolled until the daycare finally shut down about six months later.

    Regarding story 22, I actually had parents exactly like this. If this kid was in a Jehovah's Witness family, then I can absolutely understand this, because they have a tendency of arbitrarily deciding that some books, movies, ect are inappropriate. Sometimes we'd be watching a perfectly innocent kid's movie, and my dad would just step in halfway through to skip certain scenes that they didn't like, and I similarly had issues clearing some video games, because if a level had something like ghosts in it, I wasn't allowed to play anymore. Heck, even TV ads were considered to be demonic, which meant that whenever myself or my sister watched stuff, we had to turn off the TV before the ads played, otherwise we'd be yelled at or punished for allowing demonic influences. It was frustrating to watch anything because we'd always miss a little bit of the show from just after the ad break.
    To refer to the story in the video, my guess is that the moving furniture and such is a depiction of magic, which is strictly forbidden in the faith. Only god can perform supernatural feats, and any magic outside of this is dealing with the devil.

    When I worked in special ed, we had one parent being in full on denial. She came in with the child, before the school year started. Whilst the child was being shown around the school and getting more and more exited to go to this school next school year, the mom had a meeting with one of the teachers. It was supposed to just be an introduction to the school, the rules and the expectations the school had for the parents. Instead, the mother couldn't stop claiming her child didn't belong in special ed. The reason this child did not blong in speial ed? The mother has an other child, who was in university and about to become a lawyer, top of the class. So the younger child must be just as gifted as the older child, there is no way the younger child would not become some amazing doctor, laywer, astronaut, etc. The teacher tried the whole: when your oldest child is on their way to the courtroom and the car breaks down, our students are the ones to come our and fix it, so your child will always have a great future with an important job ahead of them. The parent kept being in denial. During the next school year the school managed to get the mother talking to a psychologist, to help her come to terms with a child in special ed. The child did amazing in special ed, made loads of friends and learned a lot in an enviroment safe for them. We didn't want the mother to hinder this with her negativity.

    Two girls in 7th grade had become "enemies" since the end of 6th grade. The uncle of one of the students had just been released from jail. He showed up and TASED the 7th grade student after school in the parking lot who was "bullying" his niece. There was no bullying. They both were mean to one another and used to be friends the prior year. Yes, police were called and uncle went back to jail. But when the mothers of both girls showed up, they got into a physical fight as well... it was pretty crazy

    There was one time where a kid’s dad came to the school and threatened to pull his kid out of the debate club it he was not put on team. The team consisted of me and three of my classmates. That kid was about two years younger than us, had no experience in public speaking, and contributed nothing to the preparation for the debate. He spent all his time sitting in the back of the room drawing airplanes on his tablet. I never saw him in the club again

    My Father in Law was a gym teacher. Towards the end of his career
    (hastened on by incidents like this) when he had a problem kid he would
    call in the parents for a meeting. He would tell the parents what the
    little bastard had done (it had to be pretty bad for him to call in the parents)
    and sometimes the parents would look him in the eye & state 'Not MY little precious.
    Hes a good boy he has never ever misbehaved' Even after being told the teacher had witnessed the act.

    I wasn't one of the staff/teachers but I was a volunteer at a child development center as a favor to my friend whose child was enrolled in the program (it's a long story and I'm not going to explain)
    There was this one problem boy who would smack the butts of the other children and laugh maniacally afterwards. I happened to catch him on his way to smack my friend's child butt and I grabbed a hold of his hand mid-swing and stopped him.
    Que waterworks as the little boy starts screaming and crying saying that I hurt him, the other staff had seen what was going on they were just too far away to react and corroborated the story that all I did was take hold of the kids hand to stop him from hitting another child to the director of the child development center.
    The parents of the child were called, his father showed up and when it was explained that the behavior this child was exhibiting was troubling the father responded
    "Girls like a good smack on the ass, you're just blowing this all out of proportion. Now which one of you bitches grabbed my son."
    Long story short that child never came back to the development center.

      Either of that, or it could be like what happened when I was growing up. For contacts, my mom was going through nursing school at the time and we lived in a fairly rural area, largest city in that area, south eastern Ohio if you need now. Some people can’t just fathom at the way they have been eating for years is wrong. And therefore, because of that, didn’t see anything wrong with giving the child what she did give her. I saw this in action, and I can tell you the story about it. While my memories of my grade school years are highly fragmentary, I’ve vividly remember this much. You see we had to have a healthy snack on us every day at school, at least the third grade we did. Mom would sometimes pack me homemade granola bars, blueberry bread, or anything else healthy that she could find. She says Eagle eye about it now as she was then. There was a boy I remember, goodness was he annoying is all crap, but that’s not the point. I remember my backpack hung next to his, we had a big long rack we put all our coats and backpacks, the top shelf was the lunchboxes. If you had a lunchbox, we kept our snacks in our backpacks, I kept mine separate from my lunchbox I think, I may not have, but I remember this boy, taking a big, huge, family style, share style bag of chips. I want to say they were Doritos, but I could be mistaken. In some cases, it could also be a financial concern. That may be all they can afford with whatever welfare they are on, I did not say that welfare quitted to health. I am our teacher, telling the boy that he couldn’t eat the Doritos, if Doritos they truly were, and only later making that connection. Not the connection of why he couldn’t eat Doritos, I knew by then the Doritos were no in no way a healthy snack, but why he had brought them.
