Evident that not everyone has common sense and compassion, a kindergarten teacher in Port St. Lucie, Florida, is under fire for allowing the children in the class to "vote" for the removal of Alex Barton from the classroom. Alex, currently undergoing evaluation of an autism diagnosis, was voted out of the class by a 14-2 margin. The school has declined to comment on the action taken by the teacher and has launched an internal investigation. The mother, Melissa Barton, is considering legal action.

How despicable
This teacher is supposed to be a professional and it looks like she wasn't paying attention when going for her teaching certificate. She obviously doesn't realize that being sensitive to children and their disabilities go along with teaching. I think she needs fired and the mother most definatly should seek legal action. This teacher obviously has no heart and needs reprimanded.
