You have got to read this.

But a committee of teachers, counselors and administrators at the school met privately Tuesday and ruled against the father’s theory, Cobb County school spokesman Jay Dillon said. The committee said there was never an official diagnosis.

The girl’s father said he disagreed with the ruling but expected it. If staff at the school agreed that Asperger’s syndrome caused the girl’s actions, then they would have admitted they could have prevented it by placing her in a special environment, the father said.


It could have been prevented by putting her in a special environment? Well, maybe. It also could have been prevented by her being taught right from wrong! (This is, of course, assuming that she knew the snacks were poisoned. If she hadn't, all the special environments in the world wouldn't've helped). I mean, seriously, the girl's not in a "special environment" now. That means she's at least clever enough to last in the oh-so-rigorous public school system. Which means she's smart enough to memorize "poisoning people is bad" and to live by that rule. I live it every day.

Oh, I saw two cars with that autism puzzle ribbon today. By god, that thing is ugly. And at an angle. Why was it at an angle? *shrugs*

More depressing news for you guys to read. Not triggering at all, though, unless you've been traumatized by abstinence-only education.

Oh, and speaking of various royals, [livejournal.com profile] trollprincess? Remember your comment about having 20 wishlist pages? Yeah. I win! I have way too much time on my hands.

It's a puzzle game, with weird colors of honey.
