[QUOTE="dreamer, post: 143054, member: 1697"] Admittedly, I did not read the replies here....am trying to catch up what I missed while gone to SHriners with my son.... AND.....I am NOT unbiased, I am NOT real objective....my personal experiences have made me ..paranoid. I would not discount this as a form of trying to get your son out of the school system......(see my posts at Special Education forum) I think there IS a possibilty your sons school saw a small door for them to get your son out of their hair, off their desk with this incident. They had an opportunity to pass the buck (our son) and are taking advantage of it. I was VERY glad our middle school did NOT get their laptops for the students until AFTER I had pulled my son out to homeschool him. Why? Becuz I very much feared the responsibility involved with an expensive peice of electronics. Even if it had been damaged innocently (like by being dropped or stolen or something) I feared our school would twist the inciedent, put a spin on it and it would become a serious problem for us, one that with us being on soc sec disability, would wind up costing us far more than we could ever afford. Maybe they should offer your son some type of shop class or something so he CAN take things apart and try to put them back together in a CONSTRUCTIVE manner.....rather than punishing him so extremely for being destructive? Maybe they should give the kids more TIME doing PHYSICAL things like running on a playground so kids can get rid of some of this energy etc? I dunno. Mostly I just really wanted to offer hugs. I am sorry you have to deal with this. I wonder what anyone in position of authroty thinks their method of dealing with this incident will accomplish? [/QUOTE]
