My 12 year old son (whose PDD), had a couple of students come up to him and explain why he doesn't have any friends, then during his math class he proceeded to get a pair of scissors and begin slicing his hands and a couple times on his cheek before someone caught him. He has seen his psychiatrist and therapist regarding this issue. I am meeting with the Principle and teacher tomorrow (this just happened yesterday). All of his injuries are superficial (thank goodness!) Does anyone have any… read more

My question to all is. How do we protect our children from bullying? Reason why I ask is because there a lot of bullying going around to many kids with out diabilities. Some of of our children don't know how to express themselves when something is wrong so what do we do?

My son with autism is being bullied and nothing is being done my husband and I have taken all steps plus going above and beyond it has come down to moving my family.note that we are putting my son in a safe place I want to help the ones that are there still being bullied I need to talk to someone.
Try calling the office of your state Governor. They are supposed to guarantee that bullying gets addressed. Write or call your local congressman as well. Don't give up.

I will be moving to Michigan soon and am afraid I won't fine my son a school that will take as much care of him as the one he's leaving. He is high function autistic most of his problems are social awkwardness. He has a LOT of friends here, all the teachers love him, he NEVER gets bullied. I am terrified that I will be making a huge mistake moving him somewhere else. He has been at this school 2yrs and loves it. I'm just afraid the kids won't accept him, staff will have to get schooled on… read more
