I guess my thread's none of my business!

Look, I can see how you say he/she smeared parents of autistic children. I am one of them, and I responded to that aspect of what was posted. I just didn't take it as personally as you, and I think myself and now lumberjack jeff have responded in a much more mature manner.

You thought it was out of line for them to question parents of autistic kids' ability, and called them on it. I didn't have a problem with that aspect of your post (in fact I agree). I thought you were out of line for questioning that patcox even had an autistic child, and I called you on it. If you can dish it out.

And the Golden Rule... well, I know you know what it says. I haven't done anything here I wouldn't expect anyone to do to me in the same situation. I have expressed my opinion about someone's post and expect responses, and disagreement. I have argued on issues and based on what was posted. But I have not accused anyone of lying about their family with no basis in fact. If I did so, I would expect someone to yell, "No class!" As for the Golden Rule yourself, how would you like it if patcox accused you of lying about your family-member's autism? Then why would you do unto them?
