No. Autism doesn’t make him speak or necessarily act in that manner. His mom is probably inconsistent with him at home making the situation worse
that’s it....lets blame the mom....
Not sure about that. Plenty of neurotypical students talk that way at school and the kids lack social skills (social inhibitions) while picking up language from the adults and children around them.
I don’t believe they need to put an autistic kid in hand cuffs. He should have been barred from attending classes before this happened. Their are institutions that provide one-to-one care but it’s hard to find one that is properly run and staffed. No, the kid shouldn’t be allowed to physically attack anyone but I don’t see how traumatizing with a “scene” including hand cuffs would help. Some of these schools are good and some further traumatize because they are understaffed, ideologically run, or have bottem-of-the-barrel teaches poorly supervised. One such place produced a very large teenager said to be violatile and agressive. Move him out of that heck-house similar to “One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest” and he is a sweet young man who responds well indeed to civil treatment. I don’t think we have enough info here but again - cuffs on a 10 year old with autism seems like misapplication of “the law.”
