I don't think the GP comment was focusing on autism necessarily, just bad behavior in general. There are still big problems with kids who aren't autistic that schools struggle to deal with, largely because of a lack of discipline at home. Single parenthood probably doesn't help, but I disagree with the GP that that is the primary factor. At least where I live, the teachers face not only misbehaving kids with little recourse, but also a general attitude from parents that teachers are largely responsible for their kids' success instead of the parents and kids themselves.
- throwanem 7y agoThe article and the intervention it describes exist specifically in the context of "special education". The children subjected to it have autism, epilepsy, and similar conditions. To say that they're merely "misbehaving" because of bad home training, lazy parents, or any other reason, fails to correctly understand the substance of the matter.
