sorry this addition made me so ANGRY on your behalf, remembering how schools inflict such absolutely TORTURE on students with sensory issues and health issues in general. and it all ties in to lack of childhood bodily autonomy.
it is absolutely insane the extent to which school students aren't allowed to take care of their basic bodily needs such as:
controlling their water/food intake (the fact kids have to ask permission to drink water is INSANE)
hearing protection for kids with noise sensitivity
light protection for kids with light sensitivity
(seriously what the FUCK is up with controlling kids wearing hoods/hats/sunglasses during class)
removing themselves from a hostile environment (having to ask permission even on the verge of meltdown to step out of a room/situation that is actively causing them pain)
not having every minute of their day scheduled and supervised on a level akin to literal prisoners (hint: we shouldn't be doing this to people in prison either!)
having a basic level of goddamn privacy
going to the fucking bathroom!!!
it is VILE how often school systems reject the basic human agency of their students. it causes devastating harm, and disproportionately impacts vulnerable students.
So many students are forced to experience PREVENTABLE daily pain and discomfort resulting in long-term health issues and disability because their basic needs are ignored and trampled on by adult authority. There is no world where this is an acceptable norm.
