I'm Autistic, had a problem with getting bullied in high school, and hug things when very stressed. One time, out of school time, more than 20 kilometers away, and not while wearing school uniform, I was walking to the beach near my house while hugging a teddy bear. Somehow, my princapal, who didn't live anywhere nearby, saw me, and called my mum saying it 'wasn't normal'. She also knew I am Autistic at the time of calling. Far from the only time she annoyed my mum with nonsense. Like the time I had pants tucked into my boots because the legs wouldn't fit over the top and she tried to call her for me wearing 'leggings'. They weren't even anywhere near translucent, let alone transparent. Just tucked into my boots. I'd even worn them before with no problems. Seriously that place sucked.
