School Takes Away Blind 8-Year-Old's Cane And Replaces It With Pool Noodle

For Dakota Nafzinger, a cane is his only way to navigate the world and alert others that he is blind. But that cane was taken away from him after he allegedly misbehaved on the bus... and then, it was replaced with a pool noodle. Watching Dakota try to get around with the flimsy toy is both heartbreaking and enraging.

Update from the source:

North Kansas City School District apologizes for taking away blind child’s cane

Fast forward to Wednesday. The North Kansas City School District released a statement that read in part:

“The District has reviewed the situation. We regret that a mistake was made in making sure the student was in possession of his cane when he boarded the bus Monday evening.

The District has apologized to the family and is working to rectify the situation.”

Don't tempt 'em, Doc, they might do that someday...
