Why aren't any of the questions in here about special education?

I've noticed three kinds of non-sped questions being posted to this category:
1. Kids and freaks who just love the anonymity of the site to create electronic obscene graffiti. Twits.
2. People who just don't care, and don't understand the value of categorization for people who are serious about getting help with serious issues. They just randomly click through the categorization process when asking their questions, and act very offended if you bring it up to them.... as if it is cool to not follow rules or care about other people's needs. Also twits.
3. Foreign non-native English speakers who don't understand that "Special Education" is not about specialized skills education... usually posting technology, national test, and other specific specialized skill questions. Annoying but forgivable.
The biggest issue regarding this, is that people with legitimate special education questions, if they browse the category first, will avoid asking their question because they see a site filled with nonsense. I have a feeling that the lack of special education questions in the special education category has a lot to do with this.
About all we serious users of the site can do is RAMO, at this point... Report and Move On. Use the "Report Abuse" link by the asker's name... the list of abuses they ask you to select from includes Miscategorization. Unfortunately, Yahoo! Answers doesn't have enough staff to keep up with the idiocy. So they get around to the reported violations.... eventually.... maybe.

As special ed can become a dumping ground for student no one knows what to do with, this section has become a place for questions no one knows what to do with...

I agree! Perhaps because the people posting other questions can't understand which category they should put them in.
