My son is special needs and has some pretty notable developmental issues. One of those issues is potty training - he's 10 now and still has an accident once or twice a month (and wears pull-ups to bed).

In Kindergarten he was placed in the care of a teacher who was *supposed* to work with him 1-on-1 to help him integrate with the school and fellow students. About halfway through the year we noticed his behavior related to potty training becoming more and more stressful: he was crying when we asked him, full on panicking when he had an accident, etc.

When we asked him why he told us that he was a "bad boy," and "no one would like him" if he kept having accidents. When asked where he heard that, he told us his teacher told him.

We started doing some digging, and from what we were able to gather the teacher, in addition to berating him for his learning disabilities, basically let him watch YouTube / Netflix videos all day long. Friends in the school district basically confirmed what was happening, but were unable to go on record because it would put their job on the line.

However, we *did* take our concerns to the school, provided a threat of litigation, and had our son moved to another school. The teacher in question was not rehired the next year.
