[QUOTE="muttmeister, post: 569597, member: 135"] First of all, I'd like to know the age of the class involved. Then I'd like to know what led up to this assignment. It is entirely possible, given the news coverage, that the kids were blaming the fact that the kid supposedly had Aspergers and the teacher was trying to clear up some misunderstanding. Then I'd like to know what discussion was given before the assignment. In a school setting, only so much can be covered and it has to be age appropriate but it is possible that they discussed NOT automatically looking for the "weirdness" in people and NOT bullying people who are different than you. I don't think, with the info you've given here, that we can possibly know if it was appropriate or inappropriate. A lot of us with kids with problems are super-sensitive about anything that happens. Maybe, as in many other situations, we need all of the information before we make a judgement. [/QUOTE]
