RE: Court Rules School Can Use Electric Shock as Punishment For Special Needs Students
Is sucks that you are doing such a poor hit piece on this fine school. Its a school for students who are violent and unable to be communicated with in normal ways due to severe autism. Instead of drugging them or physically restraining them, because those are the alternatives, alternatives that don't work as well, they use corrective electric shocks, this is nothing like shock therapy, something that is still used and also highly effective in cases that do not respond to other treatments, this is more like training your dog with a shock collar. And like training your dog with a shock collar it works great and does not harm them.
Eventually, he began to observe that the students were horrified of the shocks and they were rarely aggressive enough to require such a painful punishment.
That's a funny way to say that in 100% of students the violent behaviors are stopped and that after a short period of time they no longer require any corrections at all.
I think I could correct your unacceptable behaviour with shock treatment.
Care to volunteer?
For starters it is not "shock treatment", that is a very different treatment for very different conditions.
I don't have any unacceptable behavior. If I was a big violent retard or had a child that was one though I would prefer some simple and harmless conditioning to being constantly sedated or having to constantly be physically restrained by multiple staff members for the rest of my life. If you choose the latter then it would be a lifetime of drugs and restraints instead of a brief period of conditioning. So why would you choose the drugs and physical restraints over highly effective and safe conditioning?
