My condolences. I’m sorry that happened to you.

Right? Some of these kids see their teachers more than their actual parents. Could you imagine having to deal with such blatant disrespect every day from someone that is meant to be your role model?

Some jail staff appeared to believe that Talotta was manipulative and dishonest. “He attempted to blame his behaviors on his ‘Autism,’” the jail psychiatrist wrote, according to Wright. The psychiatrist also wrote that staff reported he was “childlike at times, exaggerating his symptoms and appearing to be very needy.”

I’m sorry, are they implying he was faking/playing up the effects of having an IQ of 60? What’s with the quotes around the word Autism? Can we please have the jail psychologist investigated while we’re at it?
