      Lady, you know what you do with people who can't help but shit themselves? You show them how to bathe. You keep them away from the shit. You dont let them play in it.

      If you literally cannot help but type paragraphs of harmful shit, maybe you shouldnt be at the computer? I need to step away from this one sorry. I get what you're saying, but there's ways of dealing with it and then theres externalising it to whatever the heck op is

        To take your analogy of the classroom: When one of the ND kids gets in a fight or yells at another child, theyre separated and we help them calm down, and talk them thru what happened - like what you do with any child. This is because they arent animals acting unknowingly, but people. And they are then given the tools to handle emotional distress. Like you do with all children.

        Well my personal experience with that involved being pinned to the floor against my will & again, being put in confinement for not doing exactly as I was told when I was told to do it, or for speaking out when I thought that demands being made of me were unfair. To go back to the floor thing, shoving my face into the corner where said kid did that was something that my teachers would expressly taunt me with because they knew it made me feel sick.

        So obviously while a nominal component of "Therapy" was present (in that they brought in a guy they said was a therapist to talk about said emotional management once every week or two), making sure we did as told was more the point of it.
