So do you think that infants should be criminally prosecuted if they strike someone? What age do you draw the line at?

I am sick and tired of people not understanding mental DEFICIENCIES such as Autism. Until you have a child with it, you’ll always just think that it can be “disciplined” out of them. “Behavioral Conditioning” appears to be the only way to even half way get through to Autistic children and it takes a ton of training of teachers to be able to do this. The answer is probably not to mainstream the children but to get them the help they need and then put them into the population.

Did you miss the part where it states the child has Autism? That is an extremely difficult condition to deal with for teachers and parents. Of course the child shouldn't have hit ANYONE. But, prosecution is ridiculous. Also, if the parents spanked the child to try to teach him/her to behave they may have been prosecuted themselves. Not to mention that spanking doesn't work on Autistic children.
