Who cares? Honestly. They thought they were alone. Now, taxpayers have to pay someone for what? What is the harm here? This Country is insane. The teachers are probably horribly embarrassed and it’s a good lesson to make sure the damn phone is hung up. But come on. They’ll settle, you know why? Because IT’S NOT THEIR MONEY.

If you have no empathy for a disabled child then why be a teacher? There are plenty of jobs for petty and mean-spirited folks.

“People who have no souls.”

They have souls. Their souls are just buried underneath arrogance and ignorance. This is one of the saddest stories I’ve heard over the past year, because it underscores a horrible lack of compassion and empathy, and targets a child.

Plenty of Admin/EEO types never (see/ go to) any combat and retire after 20 paper pushing years.
Do you deny that?
Do you not know any inner city slugs waiting for 20 to hit from year one?

Several of the teachers where I came from worked in the mine during the Summer Break to earn more than they would during the school year.

When I was pre-K, my dad had to work summer jobs at a nearby farm equipment plant doing the dirty jobs the union guys didn't want to do (they were good to him in their own way, though, and he never bad-mouthed them as long as he lived). The pay was better than teaching, but the work was harder. That was back before midwestern teachers in small systems were unionized, and before the teachers' bargaining units and the administrators packed the school boards.

I agree. This was a private conversation, albeit a pooly secured one.They did not make these remarks directly to the child. This has dragged on since 2013. Someone on the School Board is resisting approval of a quick settlement.

“Proper remedy, to my mind, is for those teachers to be fired.”

Followed by a righteous ass kicking from the parents of this girl.

“If you have no empathy for a disabled child then why be a teacher? There are plenty of jobs for petty and mean-spirited folks.”

Dare I say it? We are all thinking it but no one but me will say it because I know the reason.

They wanted to be in a classroom of normal students, not disabled ones. They probably stuck with these kids. They probably despise disabled children/adults the same way and for reasons people will abort a baby with disabilities like these.
We have laws that say disabled children are allowed to attend public school but no one can force people’s hearts to change and the sad truth is their hearts have not changed, nor do I think it will. ]

I’m sure the teacher’s union will circle the wagons for their misunderstood comrades.

So how come the three aren't working there anymore?

"Why would they want to make fun of this child?"

There shouldn't be any children around these people who have such an urge.

What is wrong with people?

I’m with you. They didn’t say anything to the girl. And, to be fair, with that girl has going against her she’d actually be lucky to be coal miner. As it is she will probably be a ward of the state for most of her life after her parents are gone.

“’It was very difficult for me to tell my child, who has been bullied by her peers for years, that she was now being bullied by her teachers,”

She actually TOLD the child——amazing.
