The teacher decided to use the special needs class to represent toddlers for a day in order to prepare her students for a toddler play date the following month.

There is something seriously wrong with this don't you think?

Is there no one around this teacher proofing the lesson plans?

This to me was a major problem. It turns out it was a problem for a few of the parents. I reached out to find out what the logic was here. Lets just say the response left me less than happy or satisfied that this would further anyones education.

I'm not trying to be any kind of social justice warrior here. I'm just saying that using anyone for to represent something they aren't is not the best look. There should have been way more thought put in to this. The practice of using someone with a disability to represent toddler is just wrong. The needs of both people are vastly different and in my opinion are not in any way similar or representative of the other.

I also find it hard to believe that parents of the students in the special needs class, had they known this was going on, would have been overly accommodating or happy about having their kids involved in such an experiment.

I just don't think it's right to use people like that.

Join the Sesh and let me know what you think. Do you think the teacher was in the wrong?
