The boy's mom says her son, who has autism and an autoimmune disorder, was 'disgusted' by his desk being placed in the bathroom.
An 11-year-old boy with autism was instructed to do his school work in the bathroom at his middle school, according to his mother.
Goodwin wrote, “My son was humiliated, embarrassed, and disgusted at this inhumane suggestion that he work in a bathroom. I immediately took my son home and he will not be returning. When we got home he was throwing up from the anxiety. How is this best practice? How is this ok? We must do better.” These conversations had been positive and supportive, according to Goodwin, so on Sept. 16, the mom was surprised that her son’s desk had been relocated to a bathroom, which she observed during school drop-off.
The district “cannot share further details, about the child in the photo or about the Facebook post’s accuracy due to federal privacy law, since school districts cannot discuss details of the education programs of individual students.” However, the spokesperson directed Yahoo Lifestyle to an official statement from Superintendent Greg Baker.
