Father With Autistic Son Sends His Kid to School With a Wire, Exposes Bullying and Abuse by Teachers.

MASSIVE TRIGGER WARNING FOR BULLYING BY TEACHERS, ABLEISM

Dear Akian’s teachers:

Fuck. You.

Fuck you for tormenting a child this way. Fuck you for treating him and every other student in that class like trash. Fuck you for potentially scarring them all for life; for making them scared in a place they should feel safe in. Fuck you for contributing to the cycle of special needs helplessness, where kids are given up on and left to languish instead of being given the skills and knowledge they need. Fuck you and all your ableism, your lies, and your perpetration of a culture where people like us are devalued, harassed, and abused.

Fuck you.

Just fuck you.

This video makes me want to scream. But as a child care provider, it also galvanizes me. Because I know that I will NEVER be what those teachers are. And it makes me even more determined to always be a positive spot in the day of the kids I take care of. To always be someone worthy of their trust and their parents trust.

father of the fucking year.

I just watched this whole thing. I really really urge you to do the same.

Parenting - you’re doing it right.

Wow. Heartbreaking. Shocking.

My level of rage because of those “people” is palpable.

Wow, that’s disgusting. Good for you sir for calling them out.

Sadly, I have been shunned, reprimanded, and damn near fired from places I have worked when I have stood up to other teachers and staff members who speak to students this way. It’s not right or ethical, by any means, but it happens more often in the realm of Special Education than many people are aware of. Kudos to this father. He’s his son’s angel.

Parent of the year. I hate that he had to go this far to get help for his son. His son deserves better, and the teacher needs never to step in a classroom again. Shame on them for treating this kid so poorly.

I am absolutely on fire over this. Please listen to it and reblog it. I should mention that a family member is high-functioning ASD (Aspergers). These teachers should be in jail.
