When Kids Get Mean
Because of all the information available today people are more educated about autistic spectrum disorders then ever before. The children growing up in today’s public schools are exposed daily to children of all different types of special needs. Hopefully through this awareness will become tolerance. However, it seems that there is at least one in every group that can be just a mean kid. Why are they mean? Who knows, maybe someone is mean to them but it really does hurt when it’s your kid that some one is being mean to. Basically, if they are not being physically harmed you have to take a step back. You truly can not control or stop another kid’s behavior unless they are causing or you think could really cause physical harm. It seems approaching some parents can do more harm then good. You can notify the school if you feel it warranted however, but again truly examine the situation before you over react. Sometimes things are better off left to blow over.

I agree with you to a point. Yes our children need to learn how to handle some situation on their own but it also depends on how old the child is and what is being said. Also the type of personality and maturity level your child is at also needs to be taken in consideration. No body wants their child to be picked on, but sometimes adults need to step in otherwise the child could develop low self esteem which could lead to bigger problems down the road.
