Getting ready to possibly have to sue my kid's school district because the state implemented a cell phone ban and the district refuses to address the fact that he has a documented history of autistic meltdowns where he goes into full on Flight mode and has made it out of the building on multiple occasions. He kept getting suspended because he'd barrel through any adult that got in his way until he finally calmed down. At like 8 years old mind you, he's 14 now. "Oh we'll just set up a BIP." Oh you mean that thing your staff and faculty IGNORED for fucking years because there was never any mention of any of the fucking outbursts you'd call me about regarding him hitting someone because they refused to leave him alone and you did nothing about when he told you? That BIP?

We didn't even want to get him a fucking phone in the first place! That's the compromise we made with the district years ago because they kept losing my fucking kid, refused to okay any other kind of tracker, and adding him to our plan with a cheapo smartphone was the the only one they'd okay that we could afford.

Sorry for the rant. I get really angry when I think about the way my brother and I were screwed over by the public school system and watching it repeat itself in New and Exciting ways with my own kids.
