WW ~ If you are going to qoute me, please read my entire answer.
I still believe that I would not tolerate a child cursing at me or hitting me. But I qualified my answer with the possibility that I might feel that way because I never had to deal with a child with severe issues.
I also still believe that consequences are important whether there is mental illness involved or not. A child who curses or speaks disrespectfully at home will not understand why it is not allowed at school or in the workplace.
Again, that is my personal opinion. I'm sorry if I offended you.
