ICARS would like @TeamTeachLtd to explain how holding someone in a head lock is part of best practice? Are you aware of the child deaths that have happened from dangerous restraints? #ShineOnMax . It is time to end the abuse being inflicted on the autistic and disabled community.

Chauvin GUILTY. Accountability needs to be upheld in the case of Max Benson killed at school. Restraint kills, police, teachers no one should be using restraints that kill. Now we call for the elimination of unnecessary restraints and the end of seclusion rooms. #ShineonMax

The first of in a series of pieces written for ICARS by autistic contributors depicting their experiences with restraint and seclusion practices. It is time autistics experiences and viewpoints are heard. @theAspergianCom Seclusion Broke My Heart

Seclusion Broke My Heart

Students with disabilities are often placed in seclusion, further isolated from peers. One sibling would no longer watch it happen to her little brother.

Accrediting training which could cause death is not human rights-based. If they are not prohibiting it, they are allowing it. Ask them to provide you with evidence to show they do not allow restraints that could lead to a child's death and how they check the methods taught.

ABA punishment isn't punishment, eh? Mmm. This same book, 2023, p30, mentions Lerman & Vorndran (2002) as a guide to punishers for ABA teams. And this is what those two wrote in that 2002 paper. Does the complaining person believe we can't feel pain or fear, perhaps?

In the absence of a globally accepted definition of LAST RESORT we have joined together to release our definition of this over used and little understood phrase. Given the trauma, injury and deaths due to restraint use we hope that our definition will be widely accepted.
