My friend’s daughter is diagnosed with autism and I think that she really have a harsh time with that kid. It’s more likely to me that her daughter is bad behaving sometimes, apart her illness. So what do you say about punishing autistic children.

Well, what to say. You’re probably just a person who misunderstood something about autism. You probably experience just some of the aspects that make you think that this child is misbehaving. Actually, that kid suffers from a disorder that is unaware of and that can not control. And your friend cannot control it; she just may try to improve the condition of her daughter by being patient and active in her daughter’s skills improvement. By punishing her she’d just worsen her condition. Why punish a child that has already being punished with having autism at all?

| I say you can't punish someone who has no idea about what they have done, or are doing. |

| I have a two year old in the process of getting diagnosed-a very hard thing to get accomplished-and I've read some of the posts of people saying you cannot punish them because they don't know what they are doing. Truth is, autistic children ARE NOT STUPID my son just got told not to dump the kitty water, so he turned around and dumped my coffee! It is very hard to see the first posts point of view, that her friends kid is just bad, because I am starting to feel that way. But, this is an obsession with my son, and just because they are autistic, they should not be directed to do something else |
