some stuff has supposedly been the reason for a only five-year-old autistic boy from the us state of Tennessee has come in serious problems.
the School East Ridge Elementary believes that the small boy has gone far over the limit.
His family believe, however, that there is a big misunderstanding, it writes the local branch of the ABC in Tennessee that has been in contact with the family and the school.
Nathan is a five year boy who goes to nursery at the school. According to the headmistress many members of the staff of the school talked to the boy several times on the borders.
His guardian says that the school has submitted an official report to the state on the child.
Summery Putnam, who is the boy’s guardian, tells the local tv station, that she got a call from his son’s teacher three weeks ago.
I felt sick. The teacher called me and said that I should talk with Nathan about the borders.
Nathan is autistic, and it can be difficult for him to understand social cues with a drawbar.
– If you do not understand how autism works, so you might think that he does it intentionally and is cumbersome, but it is not the situation, explains the guardian and says that the teacher accused her son of sexual acts, after he had hugged a friend and kissed another child on the cheek.
In a posting on Facebook, which has since been made private, writes a grandparents to Nathan, that it is scary that a child can be accused of sexual harassment.
‘What do you do when a five-year child becomes the accused in order to exercise the sexual harassment of the school system? The school has said it will stand in his papers and the rest of his life, people will be able to read that he was supposed to be seksualforbryder. The child is autistic. He works differently than other children. What should you do? Who to help, when the school will not listen? Nor to the child’s doctor when the doctor tells that the child has difficulty understanding anything that borders. If anyone can help, please write to me’, it said in the advertisement.
For ABC tells his grandparent, that the boy not know what sex is, and that he should not be treated in this way.
A spokesperson from the school has issued a notice, which states that the school is required to file a report if there are any concerns about a child.
But the family insists that school is wrong.
– He know not what he is doing, tells Summery Putnam.
the Boy has now changed both the class and the teacher.
