Fran I had to got back and reread this...
Miller said restraint can be viewed as a form of torture. "When you start to think here, you're losing your breath you're losing your ability to breath .. .so you're creating that same physiological impact on that child that they're going to suffocate, and in fact, in cases they suffocated, they died," he said. Is this his interpretation of restraint or actual cases of restraint used??? What were the reasons for using restraints? What about restraing a child to keep them from harming themselves? Other kids? Who is to decide? Just asking... |

Who is to decide? Just asking... Actual restraints - they physically restrain the child while he's lying face down. (hence the smothering/suffocating/death of child) - barbaric (jmo) A person dealing with children with special needs would and/or should have the appropriate training, experience, and/or education to not resort to such a barbaric means of control. This is all my opinion. Here's another example: Claire Lester's behavior was a challenge. She yelled and repeated phrases from movies. When upset, the 12-year-old girl with autism sometimes shoved papers off her desk or waved her arms and kicked her legs toward approaching teachers. The staff at her Orange County public school responded to her behavior, her father said, by grabbing his 80-pound daughter, forcing her to the ground and then holding her there. This happened 44 times during the 2006-07 school year, according to school records the family shared with the Orlando Sentinel. She was held once for an hour and, on average, 22 minutes at a time, the records show. At least one incident in her class for children with autism left her back badly bruised, her father, Steve Lester, said. http://www.100ideas.org/news/articles/parents-special-needs-students-physically-restrained-too-often |

I can restrain a child without such extreem measures..I have seen measures uesd in prisons not that extreem.. |

it would be safer for the teachers to have tasers. that way when the kids act up the teacher doesnt have to put themselves in harms way and just tase em

Who is to decide? the local school board/community 
Granted there is always the exception, the chance that restraining a child may be the only means that work. But these examples do not fit that mold - I would go insane being restrained (not in control of my own body) for 10 minutes much less a child (22 mins and some over an hour seems excessive to me). |

I think I would question the parents who let it happen 44 times...It would only happen once to my kid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!HMMMMMMMMMMMMm |
