K-12 IMPLOSION UPDATE: Children Are Being Locked Away, Alone And Terrified, In Schools Across Illinois. Often It’s Against The Law. “The spaces have gentle names: The reflection room. The cool-down room. The calming room. The quiet room. But shut inside them, in public schools across the state, children as young as 5 wail for their parents, scream in anger and beg to be let out. The students, most of them with disabilities, scratch the windows or tear at the padded walls. They throw their bodies against locked doors. They wet their pants. Some children spend hours inside these rooms, missing class time. Through it all, adults stay outside the door, writing down what happens.”

I’m not saying that sending your kids to public school is parental malpractice, but . . . well, actually, yeah, I am.
