[QUOTE="slsh, post: 427404, member: 8"] I guess my question is, does it really matter if other kid is Special Education? I just do not think there is *ever* an instance when this kind of behavior should be excused. What if neither kid had special needs? Would opinions change? What if your son sustained a serious long-term (or fatal) injury - would opinions change then? He had enough oxygen deprivation to cause him to *pass out*! My son broke his teacher's arm years ago. I insisted that a police report be filed. Didn't matter a lick that he was Special Education, or was in a self-contained therapeutic school. In my little corner of the world, assault is assault. What is an appropriate in-school consequence for causing such harm? I don't know... We seem to advocate for logical consequences, especially for our teens. I don't see any logical consequences occurring for this young man, especially in light of the severity of his actions. [/QUOTE]
