Teacher has no fucking clue what kind of psychological damage she just caused this child. Poor kiddo. She's a human being, but is treated as less than a human being. If this "educator" did this in front of family, I can imagine that she treats the kid as a burden in the classroom.

All you had to do was pull her and hold her hand. Guide them, believe in them. But no, she did the opposite. Literally left the kid on the outside looking in. Those are her peers.

This woman is vile, and should not be trusted around children. Lisbon, get her out of your education system. If I am that child's parent/guardian, my anxiety would be peaked at the thought of dropping her off at school to be treated like this on a daily basis.

Watching this really brought my piss to a boil. The cruelty that humans are capable of is utterly staggering. Just want to give kiddo a hug and tell her I believe in her.

On its face, this appears terrible. However, It would be prudent to know circumstances before having such a vicious reaction. For ex: what if her parents told the teacher she shouldn’t be moved from her spot? No idea if that happened here, but neither do you. That’s the point.

The teacher never moved and could have easily had her in the circle and held her hand the entire time. No context would excuse this treatment.

Context is always necessary. None of us have any idea what the backstory is here. What if her parents explicitly told the school and staff their daughter is not to be touched under any circumstances, has threatened legal action against the district in the past, etc. (which is definitely a possibility). Some parents are brutal in this regard, literally threatening teachers and staff daily with legal action. You have no idea what you’re talking about, based on a video clip alone. (Source: spouse works in special Ed and deals with these kids/parents all the time).

All that article stated was that the father believed it not to be malicious but rather an unfortunate accident. I go to Lisbon and will be back after Christmas break, I can ask the teacher in this clip, who by the way is very nice and friendly, what happened. i should be back with an update in a few weeks.

I too would like to hear more context, but Reddit doesn’t do context well.

Oh come on one incident like this isn't going to produce psychological damage in a little girl who is clearly accustomed to facing hardship.

No I don't.

I'm not the one that thinks so little of them that I believe they will be damaged after one little incident like this.

TheTyrantKingGeorge t1_j1n7mlx wrote

It's only one little incident because it wasn't you. You're minimizing it, and excusing an adult's bad behavior. I can only hope her family doesn't fail her like your parents failed you.

I'm not excusing anybody's behavior I'm just saying people who aren't pathetic know not everything is a tragedy.

It's never just one incident this was just the first in front of the parents. I'm autistic and was discriminated against for almost an entire school year because the school wouldn't do anything until it happened in front of my mother. Thus teacher definitely did more to this kid they always do.

Sure but I'm responding simply to this claim made above:

If you get you're pants pulled down at a school assembly infront of your parents all your friends and everyone else's parents is that not traumatic. It just happened once so according to your logic not it's not. If a guy breaks into your house just once is it not traumatic too? Being forced to sit out in front of everyone you know just because you can't walk is traumatic one time or not she's always going to be wondering if it'll happen again or why no one in the school went to help her. Why all her teachers just let that happen to her.

I mean, my buddy pantsed me at lunch in middle school once in front of the whole lunch room and I walked it off because I'm not a pathetic loser.

You really took a single part of my reply and ran with it huh. Also nice calling disabled people pathetic really showing your true colors there.

5nd t1_j1oa2y2 wrote

I'm not calling disabled people pathetic. I'm explicitly saying disabled people especially endure hardships and it isn't psychologically damaging to have one incident like this.

You and all your buddies in this subreddit reeeeing about how one little experience like this is going to damage someone who is disabled.

You're not even listening to actual disabled people like myself about how stuff like this is traumatic you've just made it up in your head that it can't be when real disabled people are telling you otherwise. You can ask any disabled person and they will tell you how traumatic it is to be left out hell there's an entire tiktok trend of disabled kids talking about being left out and how traumatic it was you're being willfully ignorant.

I am reliably informed by the esteemed members of this subreddit that I myself am disabled.

Also, being nonbinary isn't a disability.

But the special ed program there will, it’s intentionally set up to isolate the kids in it so they don’t cause disturbances to everyone else, generally it results in the kids being socially distant and unable to really mature or talk with people, and yes, before anyone asks, I was a student there for 10 years, I would know (not in the special ed program, but I know how that works too)
