The children escaped captivity in a house of horrors nearly four years ago -- and two of them are telling their story for the first time in an exclusive interview with ABC News' Diane Sawyer. The body was found a short distance from a walking trail, authorities said. The former Food Network host opened up about making it her "mission" to show "all that Latinos contribute.

I never thought of the possibility of it having a negative effect on the other children. My son suffers from clinical depression and is in his third in-school suspension this year. His first was for talking during a guest speaker and when asked if he was ready to start, he replied 'I am If you are.
The next suspension was for being on the side of the girls locker room, not in, sitting waiting on the other boys who dressed out for gym. This one is for being in a name calling argument while in the cafeteria. He is in ninth grade. I went to the school for a scheduled meeting with his principal and told her that he cannot mentally handle isolation all day, that he comes home and shakes for an hour and paces and his depression worsens.
Where he goes to school the children in suspension are not allowed to have a normal lunch, they are given a cold sandwich, chips, and a milk. Thank you for your article. I firmly believe that a school's job is to teach all students regardless of race, sex, disability or personality type conflicts.
This whole teach-to-the-test and over-focus on academics has the opposite effect it is meant to have. I believe we need to teach kindness, empathy, conflict resolution and other non-punitive approaches. Are these skills any less needed to be a functioning whole adult able to navigate this harsh world? I am very disappointed at many of … Read More. I am very disappointed at many of the comments in this section as there are no throw-away children in our society.
Whatever happened to problem solving and mutual respect? When children are a part of creating rules and class circles to problem solve issues, there is less discipline issues. Children are not little trained monkeys who are bad or good. Nor are the empty vessels to be filled. They are little human beings who have all the ranges of emotions and frustrations that we do. The difference is their young brains are not fully developed yet.
The parts of our brain that deal with impulse control and empathy are not fully developed until our early twenties. Students will act out; they will say and do many stupid things and so we as adults whose brains are fully developed must expect it and work with children not against them or talk down to them. Teachers and adults should do a little self-reflection. Are we perfect?
When was the last time you went off an a colleague, or had a road rage incident? Obviously extreme violence and or weapons or drugs can and should be handled differently. Most expulsions from school and or in-school suspensions are not at all violent in nature. Maybe we as adults should have realistic expectations of children. This does not mean that they are not held accountable. Children who are punitively punished spend much of the time being mad they are in trouble or angry at being treated unfairly and not being heard.
They are way less likely to have genuine remorse or to feel inclined to stop the behavior next time. The more probable cause of harm to "well-behaved" students when there are a large amounts of suspensions for the bad-behaved kids seems to be … Read More. Hmm… do the researchers know that correlation does not equal causation? Major defiance stops teachers from teaching, and kids from learning.
And well-behaved kids will suffer from anxiety and low performance when they are directly affected by the bad-behaving students. I agree with you Renee. They're saying something equivalent to "in areas where people are more likely to know how to swim, i. How does stomping brain injury into a kid not bring down … Read More. I just came across this article doing some research after reading about a girl getting beaten death in school and another kid stomped on.
How does stomping brain injury into a kid not bring down education? Some of these statistic abusers really need to stop picking the apples and check out the roots of the tree.
Look at all these anecdotal comments from the older generations. This was a study with a sample size of 17, Your personal observations and describing how you feel contributes nothing of relevance. Cite someone who has actually taken the time to do the research if you want to argue against this.
Horse apples! Obviously, the behaviors which elicited the suspensions were the upsetting, detracting factors. I swear, sociologists always manufacture ways to minimize or excuse bad behavior.
The mantra of sociology is that people are neither responsible for their bad behavior nor liable for its consequences. And you feel you can actually correlate suspensions with test scores of non suspended kids…seriously? Absolutely ridiculous! Stop making excuses for bad behavior. Much more teaching and learning happens when there are less disruptions!
So true. Asians can be starving and not act like that. There is little misbehavior among kids in Korea and even poor nations like Vietnam, in school. In fact in African American communities in the South when there was tremendous poverty, in the '40s and before, there was far less misbehavior in school.
Look at Alcatraz, it was mostly white, African Americans were underrepresented. Now poverty is seen as a … Read More. Now poverty is seen as a license to act out, including among poor whites, Latinos, etc.
If you look at the comparisons, poor people now would be considered rich 50 years ago. Kids from Africa who are immigrants get suspended far less than white kids. I cannot count how many times you have blamed racism for the failure of some to succeed in school. Is there any issue for you to hold two completely contrary views simultaneously or do you just change your mind minute to minute? Historical racism not individual racism.
We need to make a sacrifice to make up for past racism. Otherwise it takes 1, years, too long in my view. I believe Obama gained as many votes as he lost by being black, just my opinion. Your children attend schools with the lowest AA populations in the city. I sent my younger one to one of the most diverse schools in the city. The older chose for himself.
My kids are underrepresented minorities and increased that. I increased the AA percentage. I am lucky I was able to buy one house. I can't sell and buy and pay 60k to realtors due to board of ed policy. I'm not as rich as you.
