There's No Hole in my Head

"Everyone thinks my head's full of nothing, wants to put his special stuff in. Fill the space with candy wrappers. Keep out sex and revolution. But there's no hole in my head. Too bad." -Melvina Reynolds There's no Hole in my Head

 

Dispatch from the Front Lines - What's Not Okay in Kindergarten

I work part-time as an Instructional Assistant for a boy who is diagnosed only as being "Emotionally Disturbed" - ED (like you need to have some sort of doctorate to diagnose that). I hang out with him throughout his struggles in Kindergarten and implement his IEP (Individualized Education Program).

Boys and girls, Kindergarten is a fucked up place. It's very safe - if you follow the rules. You'll be fine - if you follow the rules. I realized on Day One of this job that everyone put through this system is being trained to become perfect bank tellers.
