Today, I was at the park with my autistic son when I noticed a teenage girl imitating him by flapping her hands and walking on her toes. Fed up with children mocking my son, I went over and sternly lectured the girl's mother. Turns out, her daughter is autistic too and will be in my son's class. FML

Sooo thats good right? under the circumstances? They can be friends =]

I understand why you'd be mad.. A close family member of mine is autistic and it makes me very angry if people imitate him.

I have asbergers sydrome and I know how the mom feels but I have been able to defend myself. Autism is a disorder by the way

She did that cause most selfish, careless teens do that sh.t . i get why she did this. if that was your child , would you let others make fun or would you defend your child?

Yep I would have done the same too, my brother has Autism, and while he doesn't flap his hands, he has other quirks and it pisses me off when people make fun of him for things he can't help. If it was my kid, I would have done the same thing, because there are a lot of insensitive, mean people out there who get off on teasing people who can't defend themselves.

That does suck. But im sure that mother understands

No she didn't deserve it because she wrote she was tired of others mocking, so she got angry. You would've done the same.
