Ignorant Forms Of Communication

Breaking it down to as simple as it can be, behavior between people is communication. The question remains whether or not professional educators recognize when they are effectively communicating with their behavior (words would be included as a form of behavior).

A smile or the finger, there is communication behind the behavior. Praising words or condescending words, there is communication behind the behavior.

People with cognitive disabilities most always have a communication system that is messed up.

It is that simple.

But, since no one can "see" these types of cognitive disabilities, there are way too many people who just can't connect. Kids that are physically deformed or have "obvious" disabilities are treated with much more respect than those who have messed up wiring.

Typical looking autistic kids, SLD kids, low IQ kids and a host of others should be able to respond to typical communication is the common ignorant thinking.

The same kids that are called stupid, lazy, stubborn, malingering, irresponsible, products of bad parenting and a host of other labels, that can not progress a half year in three years of instruction, are the same kids that professional educators would not dare let see testing protocol or sample test questions because those same kids would learn the answers instantly, I say sarcastically.


The same kids who do not process typical social cues, can not effectively socialize with their peers, and thereby do not effectively communicate to or from other people like typical kids do are the same kids that ignorant educators think should be able to respond to corporal punishment like typical kids do.

These same kids, who, for what ever reason, do not respond to regular types of communication are expected to respond to another type of regular communication in the form of corporal punishment.

These same kids that can not process that 2 plus 2 equals four, or that continue to self stimulate themselves despite being told countless thousands of times to sit still are expected to process the professional educators communication form of corporal punishment.

If yelling at a deaf kid doesn't work, just spank them. I have the personal experience of a couple of educators telling me that my son "hears more than he lets on." The same kid who some so-called professional evaluators gave an IQ score in the 60's somehow has the brillance to "let on" that he does not hear as a way of life. The same kid, actually adult now, that right now is searching the internet for various video games is the same kid that some local professionals gave an IQ score in the 60's. From my perspective, it was these so-called professional educators that were letting on that they knew what they were talking about.

Why don't we just have an initiative that makes corporal punishment the basic form of worldwide communication. According to the public comments and anecdotal evidence within the below links, it appears that spanking kids (choosing the least form of corporal punishment cited) is an effective form of communication across all spectrums.
