To be cheesed off with what I heard at the park?

So took my nephew to the park today he was happily playing by himself and with the other children.

A little boy came over to him and both children were happily playing when the little boy's mum came rushing over and announced in a really loud and condescending manner 'this is Fred (name changed) he has autism and he finds it very difficult to play nicely with other children'

Was there really any need?

What does this teach other children about disabilities?

I was so shocked I wasn't able to string together a coherent sentence to describe the shock I was feeling :/

Hi everyone - we've had a few reports about this thread and we feel it's a good time to link to our campaign, This Is My Child, which aims to highlight many of the issues that parents of children with additional needs face.

This page here as it addresses many of the misconceptions surrounding special needs and may help answer some of the questions raised on this thread.

Thank you all.
