    In the case of Honig v. Doe, it was the first case to reach the Supreme Court dealing with discipline of special education students. This case took place in 1988 after two students from the San Francisco School District with emotional disabilities and aggressive tendencies were threatened with expulsion. John Doe (a pseudonym) was a socially and physically awkward 17 year-old who had difficulty controlling his impulses and anger. From early on in school, physical abnormalities, speech difficulties, and poor grooming habits resulted in his being the target of classmates teasing and ridiculing him. One day, in response to taunts from a fellow student at a developmental center for disabled students, he reacted in an explosive manner anticipated by his individualized education (IEP). He choked a student with enough force to leave abrasions on the boy’s neck. Afterwards, while being taken to the principal’s office, John kicked out a window. John was suspended from school for 5 days. The principal recommended that he be expelled. A lawsuit was filed, and the federal district court issued a temporary order directing the school to return John to his then current educational placement.…

    Brian is not the first athlete to encounter issues in trying to “bulk up”. Many high schools athletes do not have the knowledge on how to properly put on muscle and gain weight. I would ask Brian questions like: how many calories do you eat a day, how much creatine are you taking daily, what foods are you eating, how often are you eating, how often do you lift weights, what supplements are you taking, are you staying hydrated? It is evident that he had a family history of heart disease; this is important information because in order to give someone nutritional advice, one must know this to make sure recommended foods will help and not elevate his chance of heart disease. The history of heart disease effects his nutritional plan because we must be very careful in choosing foods for him to eat that will not elevate his chances of having heart problems at such a young age. As a high school athlete I do not have a problem with him taking creatine to try to put on some muscle mass. Creatine has been proven to help athletes and it is a good way to bolster up weight in the gym. There is a cause for concern if Brian is not keeping himself properly hydrated because creatine can cause muscle cramps that hurt the athlete on the field. I don’t think he needs to be taking creatine, but I do believe that it can definitely help him reach his goal weight. After doing the Mifflin equation with Brian’s stats, he should be eating 3434 calories a day just to maintain his weight. But his goal is to pack on weight so for a healthy gain of two pounds per week, he should be consuming no less than 4434 calories a day. It is clear that by eating only 3 meals a day, Brian is not consuming enough calories that his body needs. It is important for Brian to eat more often and to increase the portion sizes of his meals. He is a very active athletes that burns a lot of calories…
