    Default Autistic kid gets voted out of class

    The teacher led them in this pitiful ceremony. The teacher was only trying to be conservative?

    "After each classmate was allowed to say what they didn't like about Barton's 5-year-old son, his Morningside Elementary teacher Wendy Portillo said they were going to take a vote, Barton said.

    By a 14-2 margin, the students voted the boy, who is in the process of being diagnosed with autism, out of the class.

    Melissa Barton filed a complaint with Morningside's school resource officer, who investigated the matter, Port St. Lucie Department spokeswoman Michelle Steele said. But the State Attorney's Office concluded the matter did not meet the criteria for emotional child abuse, so no criminal charges will be filed, Steele said.

    Steele said the boy had been sent to the principal's office because of disciplinary issues. When he returned, Portillo made him go to the front of the room as a form of punishment, she said."

    sounds like an exercise in free speech and every vote being counted.....

    im not sure what the quoted part is?, is that the part where you said, (and correct me if im wrong... )The teacher was only trying to be conservative?. If so I personally dont understand what you mean, HOWEVER...
    I dont think your sick, stupid or drunk, thats just silly, and over the top.

    If they asked you WHY you said or felt that way, that would be more appropriate or said you were misguided, perhaps that would be more appropriate to the situation.

    I'd sue the fucking teacher for even considering taking a frigging 'vote' and having kids say what they don't like about someone.
