The outrage of such a so-called therapy is beyond my comprehension, as well as hundreds of others I personally have spoken with regarding this situation. Shock therapy to treat mentally challenged individuals should be banned and addressed as an abusive, unnecessary tactic! I am the mother of four children, two whom have mental challenges, I would NEVER recommend nor subject my children to such a horrible torture.
This IS going on in schools in our country, you can google or do a search on shock therapy and see this happening, as well as on media stations nationwide. For fear of slander or such I am NOT naming specific schools, do your own research and see this is TRUE!
If you agree to have this banned from the USA, please sign this petition. I feel forwarding thousands of signatures to the government and courts of states involved will get a response, if not maybe the media would have an interest in seeing the amount of people who come forward and feel this is abuse. Feel free to add your comments, please be forthright with your opinions but not abusive.

It's abhorrent that such draconian methods are still practised in a so-called advanced society-

My son is autisic and being a mother I cannot see how these parents can allow their children to be hurt.How can you torture your child who is already going through enough with have Autism. Shame on you all.

No one should be able to use this type of treatment on young children who cannot help their behavior.
