And you think your child's teacher or School Board 'knows' about autism?

The cage you see below is not new. BF Skinner famed for his work on operant conditioning (verbal behaviour anyone?) built the 'baby box' for his daughter Deborah in 1945, see here:   http://cliff.uconn.edu/babyinabox.html 
If it's good enough for BF Skinner's daughter, it should have been good enough for this wee boy in Scotland don't you think? I have a spare dog house out the back if anyone wants it - would do for a small child, you could insulate it and put a hatch in it to slide the child's dinner into, no human contact whatsoever required.
