Pauline made the most sensible comments I have ever heard on the
subject of the schooling of kids with handicaps.
Having seen this problem up close I think it is absolutely stupid
the way the media and other politicians attacked her.
They acted in a disgraceful way to make political points against her.
The points they made were wrong or invented.
Fancy even using handicapped children to make political points !
The Greens were the most offensive.

Aaaarrrggghhh !

Obviously children suffering Autism need special attention to be educated.

Obviously curriculum teachers in general are not trained to provide special attention for autism cases while at the same time teaching other students.

The ABC especially and other mainstream media are adept at selecting an issue and spinning comment from selected viewpoints into a political attack to suit their political agenda.

The Australian ABC is riddled with bias and deceit, putting one sided views in 'news' and 'current affairs'.

Yes there are many good people at the ABC but their effort seems often stifled or suppressed by editorial management.

For example, ABC news is presently suppressing insight and danger of nutrient pollution damaging ocean ecosystems, including and involving surface current that flows to New Zealand and/or the Great Barrier Reef depending on seasonal wind direction.

There has been no investigative and news reporting follow up about danger of too many fish farms in one area, while wildlife green groups are paid money for approval or somehow agree with each other to a code of silence.

Just look at ABC bias in the on and on mantra promoting Co2 reduction while the petition by 30,000 disagreeing named scientists and their views are not duly investigated and reported.

The ABC should harness editorial space to report Autistic children do have varied special needs and do require special care in education by especially trained teachers.

There are two things to blame here.

1 Politically correctness gone mad, they don't want to admit there is a problem.

2 Lets get Pauline Hanson at any cost

It was selective understanding on what Pauline said.
When she used the words "these people" the politicians had the
opportunity to take two meanings; either the children or the activists.
They chose the children. Why ? Because it gave them a political hammer.
In fact if you take it in context you would realise that she could
only have meant the activists.
When I heard it I understood what was meant.
Pauline will I hope learn the lesson from this, assume the politicians
that oppose her are stupid as indeed they are and spell it out in great detail.

One size does not fit all, with a very wide range of autism it would not only be impossible to send these kids to special school. It is obvious that you have never witnessed children with a high degree of autism or seen the special schools.
These schools are more like prisons than schools, where it can take months to get a kid to ride a bike unassisted. Locked gates and some can not be in groups.
The kids that go to main stream school are so unaffected by their diagnoses that they do not even know they have it.
