Autistic child attacked by teachers at Madison Central School

In Madison ,Fl one mom doesn't feel at peace sending her three son's to school ,instead she fear's her phone will ring and one will be hurt,not by a student but by the teacher's who are not trained to deal with children who have special disorder's.

On Thursday October 8th 2009 an 11 year old autistic boy was walking his 3 year old brother to class with a aide and was approched by two teachers who snatched his brother from him and attempted to manhandle the 11 year old child he then pushed the teacher in self defense and another teacher entered the fray,the 11 year old's jacket was ripped and he had scratches on his back from being grab.
His mom arrived at the school whe she was alerted from a unknown source that her son was in the principals office
.Where she was giving three different scenario's of what happened.When the mother asked about the two teachers in question no names were given.The only statement was "
One of the teacher's stated had i known he was autistic i wouldn't have touched him" Is
this someone we want in a class with our children? My answer is NO!!The mother state's her son is deeply disturbed by what happens and does not want to attend school anymore.But she encourage's him to still attend after the incident the child didn't return to school until Monday 10/19/2009.The child in question had a horrible experience at Suwannee Primary his kindergarten year and was home schooled until third grade.He started attending Madison Central School in 2007 and had to be placed in hospital homebound due to teacher's not knowing how to handle his autism and selective mutism,last school semester he was chocked by a second grader and no action was taken...The mother is filing charges against the school for assualt and battery on a minor as well as a civil suit for emotional and mental stress.
