my child is attending a school for children with special needs and all the teacher gives her is only writing capital letters at the age or 7,8 and 9 yrs old. She is not joing the letters nor reading.
We went to the prinicipal to complain, he was very rude, he shouted at us and said he don,t care, it is all peanuts, we said why is our child cannot speak the language of the country and have no friends, he shouted at us and said do u know she is an english speaking child that is why she is handicap, he is supporting the teacher and so is the school system now our child is taken away from us by force and we were sent to the court in aug just because we was trying to help our by educating her which they refused to do and she was just born 1 year back now they are blameing us and saying we are the one, but they are threating us to put her in schools for children who are severely handicap and the school phys made the treat in english in the presence of our child that had her very scared.

I think you need to start at the beginning, and say where you are first of all. Then go step by step to tell the story rather than reposting the same long paragraph.
It sounds like you withheld your child from school and the authorities cannot ignore that. It may be possible to arrange home schooling but it sounds like she would be better off interacting with children her own age, special needs or not.

I am very confused by your question. There are laws in this country that protect the education of all children, even disabled children. You did not explain what type of disablitity your child has. I gathered that english is not the first language for you. Each year by law there is a meeting that plans goals and how the goals will be reached for children in special education. This meeting is called an IEP...(individual education plan). Invited to this meeting are all teachers, thereipist's, a representative from your intermeadiate school district (which oversee's all special education) and the parents. It is very important to attend this meeting, as education for special needs involves home life as well. The parents have great say in how their child is educated, and if you do not agree with the plan, you do not have to sign the agreement from this IEP. If you come do sign this agreement this plan must be followed by the shcool and staff.
As far as your child, being removed from your home, something else had to have happened other than you complaining to the school system. It sounds like you need to fint a third party to help you resolve the issues that you are having. I would go to your intermeadiate school district (which oversee's special education) and ask for some assistance in resolving these problems. Best of luck to you and your family.

District Office. Do not give up. Go WAY over their heads within the district if need be, S%*T rolls downhill, and somebody needs to be rolled right over with it, teacher and principal for starters. Had very similar problem in past, simply refused to send my son, after protests were to no avail, then went to district office to explain why child was not in attendance, and what needed done to get him attending was a new school within the district, with a better teacher, one qualified for special needs students, not the ogre they had in charge where he'd been enrolled. They'll threaten you with jail, fines, etc., fight like hell to keep you from winning(at least in my case) but persevere, they have to, by law, provide you with a safe and healthy environment for your child. Save this, home schooling may be your last resort. GOOD LUCK!!

This sounds like a school with a problem. I would sit down with a legal advisor and ask what can be done or if there are other options. When you no longer feel safe in an enviroment, it's time to contact an police officer and get their advice, too.

Find another school ASAP. Unfortunately, some schools treat the children of "troublemakers" very poorly. Based on the previous behavior of the school system, I doubt that they will treat well.
