Stuart Chaifetz is mad. He's so mad, he took his story to YouTube.
Confused as to why his "sweet and gentle" autistic son Akian, 10, was suddenly kicking school employees and throwing chairs, Chaifetz decided to wire the boy. He stuck a digital recorder in his son's pocket and was able to tape 6.5 hours of class time.
What he heard was shocking. The teacher and aide were yelling at Akian and calling him names.
When the district's response wasn't enough, MSNBC reports Stuart Chaifetz posted the following video on the web:
The above audio includes the teachers talking about having a hangover, calling Akian a bastard and telling him to shut up. At one point, the aide angrily tells the autistic boy, "Go ahead and scream, because guess what? You are going to get nothing until your mouth is shut."
This sounds bad, but it gets worse. (more)
