personally i think special needs cases need to be kept out of normal schools because they disturb the rest of the class with the moaning and moving and what not..

amen, fuck spending the tax payers money to try to convince a retard to not shit itself in public. can't we tie them to a wheel and get them to turn it to generate electricity? seems like retard-energy could be more "green". is it even human rights violations to whip, burn, and electrocute them into doing what you want when they don't even really know whats happening? are they even "human"? all the humans i know can restrain from jacking off at school, why expose kids to that

What a bunch of bullshit I heard in the video. A quality education dont cost more but what do I hear? you need two more special ed. teacher for 30 kids and two more class rooms. A physicist and phd. in learning disability. Guess what that cost a hell of a lot more money. This shit head is an idiot. The kids should get the education but let tell the truth not lie to us. You fuck head ass hole.

When it comes to schools it pays to have a strong advocate in your corner if you want to influence the school to agree to some of your ideas. That or a region that has learned in court to do so.

IEP (not Intensive Education Program, its called Individualized Education Plan). Excellent resource it sounds like. I thought it was interesting she has an LD at 4:58, because I thought she was on the spectrum, which she may have been diagnosed as today if she was entering the school system. Great Video subject and good resource.
