I've kind of had this sitting open for a few days trying to come up with an appropriate response and I've basically given up on that, all I can say is that this isn't the first time I've heard stories like this (I'm towards the end of homeschooling now and have heard variations of this story on and off throughout the entire time) and that I hate that, and the arguments I've had from other people that it's not that bad and situations like this are outlier doesn't make it any better.
yeah there are many of such stories, and they all rise a wave of outrage inside of me. Can't imagive my son in this situation...
