This is such a travesty. Her resourcefulness is awesome. It really boils my blood that this happens. It boils my blood that disabled kids are just discarded. Comments like &quot;well she&#x27;s disabled, that&#x27;s reality&quot; like this particular young woman hasn&#x27;t worked her arse off and shown she&#x27;s willing and able boil my blood. It&#x27;s still abhorrent that kids who have higher support needs are written off, too. We can still teach these kids. Yes, even the ones who require around the clock care!<p>I really hope she has great outcomes.

Apparently she was in a special education program, but something went wrong within that program.

I can only imagine this will be thrown out of court unless they&#x27;re is some gross misconduct not described in the article.<p>That some people have disabilities is a fact of life.
