Fuming with son's teacher

My son is 9 and is autistic. His reacher is usually very supportive but today they had a supply teacher. He was desperate for a wee after lunchtime and the teacher wouldn't let him and allowed class mates to make fun of the fact he was desperate for a wee.
 
No child should ever be deliberately humiliated over such a thing.

If I were their parent, I would seek retribution with the authorities. Not the sort of thing I'd allow to just slide.
 
Should be struck off! Just reading this, makes me fume!

Way to go, stupid teacher, for teaching the wrong principles.

Oh, better still, make the teacher wait, when the teacher needs to go to toilet.
 
Reading this made me furious too.
I was subjected to prolonged torture in a residential program, and one of their tactics was to make me sit in a chair for 24 hours until I soiled myself, and then not allowing me to take a shower.

There is a special place in hell for people like this. Definitely report this incident to someone with authority.
