I love this idea! Great work! I love the focus on general education classroom!

This video has a lot of important information. Good explanations of terminology and laws in plain English. People who know nothing of inclusion would learn a lot from watching your video. RHonda

I really liked your focus on information for general education teachers. I strongly agree with using teaching LD as a resource. I think it was very useful to discuss the word "appropriate" in different contexts. Good Job! Roz

The introduction was really nice and I loved your background. The discussion was very well thought out and I loved the main points that were discussed. I really liked how you all talked about LRE. - Jen Y

I really liked how you each talked about your experience in the beginning of the presentation. I agree that its hard to cover so much content and to be an effective teacher to meet all students needs. Thanks for the resources! jenM

At least someone with Down Syndrome or some other affliction can get a job at McDonald's. What do you do all day? Post what you think are funny comments on You Tube? Looks like your mama didn't seek into the whole inclusion thing for you and you got left behind as not just a retard, but an angry retard. So sad. I hope karma bites you in the ass and God gives you one of these "mutants" you speak of. Do us all a favor, when that happens, post their progress on You Tube so we can all comment. Ass.

What's with the weird angle?

@Supermassively what you say is really sad. so, if your child is disabled you would not want them challenged to do more, improve daily in their skills and be healthy citizens like you would your normal child? if you set your expectations low they will continue to meet them. so children with disabilities interfere with normal childrens' academic successes?? what power they must have - sometimes academic success is useless if you don't have compasion for your fellow man.

[Supermassively]

@tinmiss I will remember them, because what I say is correct, and if I had a retarded child, I sure as hell wouldn't be trying to convince them that they're normal or that they'll ever be functional people. Giving them that false hope is truly evil, and your attempts to do so tend to interfere with the education of normal children.

[tinmiss]

@Supermassively yip, because without them we might have fools like you as our role model of what endurance, persistance and a never-say-die attitude. May you never have a child/grandchild with a disability but if you do, I hope you remember the comments you have posted on this video.

[Supermassively]

@tinmiss So we need them to make the rest of us look better? HAHA, that makes sense.

[tinmiss]

@Supermassively ... we need special needs people in this world to remind the rest of us the world does not only consist of fools like yourself.
