[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 427329, member: 1514"] Seriously, I differ from the previous comments because Cory had the cops called on him for simply shoving a boy after he was relentless teased in a math class. I thought that was idiotic but we did have to go to court. Now Now when Billy was in middle school, he was a total geek who stood out like a sore thumb. He loved reading old novels like War and Peace and carrying around huge literary books. However, he was also academically gifted but learning disabled. He was the one who wore those big clunky black glasses and his shoes were always untied. Now I know he was so obviously Aspie but I hadnt even heard the word back then. His Learning Disability (LD) teachers in middle school wanted to argue with me that someone could be both gifted and Learning Disability (LD)...lol. Sigh. But he was also so not physically adept so PE was horrid for him. There were kids who tortured him from the beginning of school. Within the first month or so, he came home with his glasses broke 2 times and beat up. One time they cracked his cheek bone. I was livid. I went to the school and they wouldnt tell me who did it or what they were going to do about it. They actually told me Billy needed to learn to defend himself! I said the only way he could defend himself was if he brought a 22 to school because the boy simply didnt know how to fight and he still cant. He doesnt cuss to this day. He says things like oh dang it all...lol. I wish I could have called the cops on those boys. They deserved it. I had to pay for two pairs of glasses because of them and Billy had to change schools and go live with my mother. That was absurd. All because a school couldnt keep one kid safe. [/QUOTE]
