Nope, NanaKittie doesn't play favorites like that. Right is right and wrong is wrong. If anything, I would tend to let her get away with less, rather than allow her to get away with more than the other students.

Basically, all of the kids will be my favorites for different reason. There will only be about 5 of them so I have more than enough love and attention to make them all feel like my special favorite student.

What happens if one of those other kids is a tard, you going to ship it off to the public school system as not to affect the others in your school?
Well, I would never call a child a tard. I would actually accept a child into my school knowing that they had severe learning disabilities. My students would benefit from the experience of being friends with a child who is different than them. I expect my student to develop empathy for others and a willingness to help out others who need it.

I would welcome such a child because I know they need the special attention that many public schools cannot give because they are too busy with the other 25-30 kids in the class.

She will learn that and more. We will do cooking, sewing and a million other things that are useful in life. Those will be our "fun" activities.

Public schools are mandated to accomodate disabled children, sometime at extreme expense, whether it actually even benefits the child or not. I visited my nephew's class for something or other one time. There was a child strapped into a wheelchair with his own attendant. I couldn't tell if he was even conscious, but by God he was there getting exposed to whatever the lesson was, same as all the other kids. I support this in theory; in practice it can be taken to extremes.
