Right, I think we're on the same page there. Asking to be placed in a special needs school is completely reasonable. I'm saying I wonder if the ask (having the school cover all the costs for both the school and mental health services) is in anticipation of the state punishing him to mandatory mental health counseling.

The article says sentencing was supposed to be yesterday, but other articles say it was delayed. I almost wonder if the specific asks they have are in anticipation of punishment. Apparently this particular assault ranges from probation to 30 years in prison. If we assume something reasonable like "10 years probation and mandatory counseling" as a reasonable outcome, than it's possible the whole point of the lawsuit is to get the school to pay for his punishment.

On the one side, the lawyer requesting that the school cover the cost for that person to be put in a special needs school is probably the most reasonable thing that they could ask for in a lawsuit like this.

On the other, once again blaming the school for the fact that they apparently didn't take it seriously enough that if you touch this kid's Nintendo he will try to kill you just shows that no attempt has or will be made to correct the behavior and this kid is just going to grow up to be a violent psychopath who blames everybody else for their outbursts.

That works great until you realize that most banks are going to give you something like a 0.1% interest rate on a savings account with only 10K in it. You could maybe get two or three percent if you locked it into a cd for a few years, but for the sake of your estimate it might be better to say that you put that 10K into an indexed fund on the stock market.

That probably just comes down to buyer preference without consideration for the long-term impact. Like, if you put down two floor plans in front of a buyer and told them that one had more storage but in exchange all the bedrooms were smaller, they'll probably pick the ones with the bigger bedroom.

Then again, I'm also of the opinion that your average homeowner has entirely too much crap and the issue is less a lack of storage space and more an excess of stuff in storage that they're not going to touch or look at for the next decade.
