Don't forget the global capitalist white agenda to give all your children autism. 👍

Bawls, clearly in meltdown: 'I just wanna be left alone!'
'Okay that's not an option, because this is a school.' Said in a very condescending, irritated tone.
.. Do you want the kid to stop coming in to school? Because that's how you get the kid to stop coming in to school.
You can't fucking tell someone to stop having an emotional meltdown. That's not how it fucking works.
I really wish I could kick that cunt in the cunt.
edit: there appears to quite a bit more of that "tough love". These people have no idea what they're doing. They're teaching these girls to hide their distress and feel quilty about it.

You're not alone in seeing it that way. The mindgames they're playing with people are seriously messed up.

Did it hurt your feel feels? It's the social contract. I don't want to shower daily, shave or not fall into violent tempers but it's just how I must be in society. Their parents will force them back to go to school and that's just what will happen. Teachers are not saints.

Yes, it did. I've experienced the same and I can tell you that I'm not better off for it.
It's barbaric and it simply does not work.
Also you're strawmanning the fuck out of what I said.

You think you'd be better off if they listened to you?

What do you mean? YES, I would.
I wouldn't be traumatized (as much) on top of dealing with my autism.
This kind of treatment is not helpful in the least, it's harmful.
My full diagnosis at the moment is:
- Aspergers syndrome
- Severe social anxiety
- Long-term depression
- PTSD
Needless to say rehabilitation and therapy is very difficult at this point.
I needed support not abuse.

Do you understand how hard it is to control a meltdown? It's not called a meltdown for nothing.

I hope Abby's mom is okay.
