I was disgusted when she posted that story the other day. But tonight is just a step too far. Saying we all know Norman is mad. Autistic children are not mad,they are a gift. Making out her own kid has autism, if her child had autism she wouldn't even joke about it, she would know exactly how hard us parents have to fight not just with the system but with family members, friends, the school. Its a battle we fight every day. She would also know that taking a 5 minute quiz via Dr Google is not worthy of a diagnosis.
She's uneducated, a woman who refuses to open her mind to change. I hope to god special needs doesn't knock on the door of her children/grandchildren because she would be feck all use to them.
She will pull out the mental health card now to try to turn it around and make out like she's being bullied because it's easier for her to do that than to educate herself, see her mistake, learn from it and apologise.
I'm years into our autism journey so I'm well used to stupid comments like that but for someone who's only entering it or new to it, comments like that can really hurt.
