when the system fails you it may be tolerable but when it fails your children

it is not
this video is posted on you tube


its long and its sad
its about a man with a 10 year old son who is a happy cheerful inquisitive kid
he also is autistic and a special needs child
good loving teachers who want to respond
i know
a few bad apples can spoil a barrel this is not pointed at you
you have worked too hard and sacrificed too much for too little already
if you have someone blessed with autism in your life you already know the way that the world will treat them
if you do not watch this video and put yourself in akain's place
a world that doesnt understand you can be a mean place
now go out and be decent today
