Douglas Parr, 13, attends mainstream classes at Comberton Village College in England, where he was shown the famous scene from the Alfred Hitchcock thriller "Psycho" in which Norman Bates, played by Anthony Perkins, repeatedly stabs Janet Leigh through a shower curtain.
Parr was very distressed by the scene, and his teaching assistant removed him from the class when he became ill. His mother Kate Bourne said Douglas was unable to eat and was terrified of going to bed on Monday night.
