I don't know which is worse, comparing a child with autism to a homeless person or the assumption that a homeless person is so sub human that they should not be allowed in a restaurant. <br /><br />Regardless, if you are bothered so much by children why don't you take your own advice and go eat someplace that doesn't allow children in. After all, you shouldn't be trying to make your hang up with children my problem.M.J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12033918835169823548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1892134081049774386.post-65312055536390540242016-01-21T06:57:23.531-05:002016-01-21T06:57:23.531-05:00Life with an autistic child or children must be to...Life with an autistic child or children must be tough. Surely it is difficult to deal with them in some situations. It would be nice if more people were aware of the difficulties. All of that doesn't change the fact that you (or any parent with misbehaving children - whatever the reason might be) have no right to inflict your problems on other people who are in a restaurant (or where ever) with the reasonable expectation of enjoying a nice meal in at least relative peace and are paying for that privilege. Would it be OK for a homeless man to come into a restaurant where you were and expect you to ask him to sit with you and share a meal? Would you respect his situation well enough to abide and share his problem at your table? If you can't honestly say 'YES', then what gives you the right to impose your problem on others? And even if you personally can say YES, that still doesn't mean he is going to be generally acceptable in that restaurant. You may want to consider that side of your expectation of acceptance from others.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1892134081049774386.post-22436871609921577442011-07-07T15:59:36.752-04:002011-07-07T15:59:36.752-04:00Would'nt it be nice to have a reality tv show ...Would'nt it be nice to have a reality tv show on families with ASD kids at different levels, what everyday life is like? I would also love to see a "survival" type reality show with reality survival stars dealing nonstop with an asd child or colicy baby, and see what kind of survival tips they can come up with.
