It was obvious, but since he didn't have a formal diagnosis or an IEP she chose not to "believe in it".

What the fuck.
"I dispose of obsolete meat machines.  Not because I hate them (I do) and not because they deserve it (they do), but because they are in the way and those older ones don't meet emissions codes.  They emit too much.  You don't like them and I don't like them, so spare me the hysteria."

Had a teacher, back in Illinois IIRC, who didn't believe a kid had a peanut allergy.  This was in the 90s.  She pressured the kid into eating peanut butter sandwiches with all the other kids, saying something about how he was "just making things up".  The kid died.  I don't remember if she was charged or not.

Thing is, teachers are not doctors.  If they can't get that through their heads, then they have no business being in charge of children.

"Billy, when I say that ethics is our number one priority and safety is also our number one priority, you should take that to mean exactly what I said. Also quality. That's our number one priority as well. Don't look at me that way, you're in the corporate world now and this is how it works."

More dangerous criminality, heroically prevented in American schools

http://www.takepart.com/article/2013/01/18/cops-nab-five-year-old-wearing-wrong-color-shoes-school?cmpid=tp-ad-outbrain-general

QuoteIn Mississippi, if kindergarteners violate the dress code or act out in class, they may end up in the back of a police car.

A story about one five-year-old particularly stands out. The little boy was required to wear black shoes to school. Because he didn't have black shoes, his mom used a marker to cover up his white and red sneakers. A bit of red and white were still noticeable, so the child was taken home by the cops.

The child was escorted out of school so he and his mother would be taught a lesson.

Ridiculous? Perhaps. But incidents such as this are happening across Mississippi. A new report, "Handcuffs on Success: The Extreme School Discipline Crisis in Mississippi Public Schools," exposes just how bad it's become.
