No. Autism is not a ****ing excuse for this at all. Autism does not make people completely ignore being told to stop, being sent to the principal who told the child to stop acting up, etc. Autism doesn't do what you apparently think it does.
| QUOTE | | I sincerely doubt many/any people here, judging from what they've posted, understand what it's like to be severely autistic, which they'd necessarily have to understand in order to make the statement "the kid was horrible, autism didn't make it any less bad". I don't understand it either, but at least I recognize that it COULD (maybe, maybe not) have made him have much less control over himself than non-autistic people have. |
Autism does not affect control over yourself. Remember the support group I mentioned I went to in an earlier post? I met many people there who authentically had autism, and they behaved fine.
| QUOTE | | Incidentally, no matter how dense the parents may have been, that doesn't make them more guilty in this case than the asshole teacher. |
The teacher wasn't an asshole. The teacher tried to get the kid to stop in every way possible, until she had had enough.

I'm not just taking your word for it, that's for sure. Give me a source of some kind, or I'll just discard that bold assertion of yours.

Doesn't sound like their autism was nearly as severe. Did this seriously not even occur to you?
| QUOTE | | The teacher wasn't an asshole. The teacher tried to get the kid to stop in every way possible, until she had had enough. |
That's just ridiculous. Of course she was an asshole. A Grade-A one. No matter how impatient she became (and she really shouldn't have become that impatient anyway, but should have considered whether the kid had a mental problem), that would still have been no excuse to do an utterly nasty and traumatizing thing like that.
Oh, by the way, I think you were the one who said this earlier!!
| QUOTE | | The autism could have helped him, but autistic people can still choose to do things, you know. |
Sounds an awful lot like what I just said. The autism could have helped him. Making him not as blameworthy.

THANK YOU. You're the only one who bothered to research anything!
Yes, it does cause outbursts. However, the child does have some control over them, and I think he'd at least try to control them after being disciplined in nearly every way possible. It does cause some unresponsiveness, but repeated attempts do cause an effect. The kid was told what he was doing was wrong multiple times and didn't seem to even make an attempt to stop.

A bit of a stretch, yes, but he could have been playing.
