    This person was not suggesting special ed kids be instutionalized. I am a teacher, in a low income area. Please consider: Is it fair that ‘average’ kids (often from low income families) be crammed in a room with 40 students, sharing textbooks, with out after school help, because the school must pay individual aides for each of the ‘special’ students, as well as provide for every piece of fancy equipment the laws require? I’m not saying to take this away, but please consider this next time you go shopping and are helped by a high school graduate who struggled silently and alone all through school because he wasn’t considered ‘special’ enough for extra help, and could not go to college because his family had no means.
