It's...Thank you for writing this on point post. It's terribly saddening that an autistic person doesn't even have to speak a word before being single out as different, and oftentimes ridiculed. I have read up on successful inclusive schools, so I don't think it's naive to hope for autism acceptance. Like all social movements, it will require lots of work and persistence (and a little humour to get by). I will advocate for this cause until my very last breath.<br />Further,law enforcement professionals are on the front lines of protect and serving the entire community..including our ever growing neurodiverse community. We are cheating them and our community by not seeing to it they are fully trained.

I do feel like sometimes parents (whether their kids have autism or not) can become mentally unbalanced and do something they wouldn't otherwise... such as a woman in my state many years ago who had horrid postpartum depression but wasn't allowed by her husband to get help, and she ended up killing all 5 of her children. With London's story, though, I almost felt like there was something else going on... there was something more sinister about his mother. I feel like it didn't necessarily have to do with his autism, as much as it had to do with her mental health in general. Either way, it is awful. Children should be able to trust their parents.
