    The .gov has turned the schools into test areas for these drugs, attention deficit disorder.
    While no one ever listens to me,
    I am constantly being told to be quiet.

    Teachers are no longer to restrain students that are out of control, so the kids are given drugs. My brother was a special ed teacher and he retired at the first chance he got because he could no longer use physical restraint (his hands) to stop a kid that was going around biting others.

    Parents that don't teach their children right from wrong, don't have morals, and teachers not allowed to discipline children and must teach to a test developed by a federal government that has no business in the school, and you have a recipe for disaster.

    Interesting. I believe that is not an issue in South Carolina. I worked with Special Ed teachers last year as part of training for something else, and I personally witnessed a student being physically restrained for kicking a teacher. I was at another school when a child with an emotional disability acted out and had to be restrained and placed in the padded room. They have special restraining seats, wheel chairs, and rooms at the schools that have students with severe disabilities, at least from what I've seen.

    In one case I offered assistance in restraining a student with emotional disabilities, but they couldn't let me assist for legal reasons, which is a shame considering I was the only male in the area.

    My sister was a special needs teacher in California. Her specialty was emotionally disturbed children and she was not allowed touch a student except in self-defense. If a student was becoming disruptive she had to call for security to come and remove the student. I am not sure if this was school policy or California law, but I know it was one of the reasons she left. If was hard to feel safe when you could not control your classroom.

    I'm going to guess school policy, but it certainly could be state law there. They will absolutely restrain emotionally disturbed children in South Carolina. It happens every day. I know of a middle school student being handcuffed and placed in a padded room just three weeks ago. I would continue to see those sorts of things but I'm not in that situation at the moment.
