what better way to non confrontationally show a slice of living with autism. Further exposure may, just may, cut down on the glares and daggers sent by indignant adults waiting in line next to a parent with an autistic child…clearly oozing their distain for the “indulged and spoiled” child. Ah,we’ll get there.
You are so concepty there is no way to know truth from fiction. I actually knew what you were trying to do, Autistic kids featured or not, but I know that it's not what you try to convey, it's what you actually convey that counts. Less room to breathe on stuff like this.

If you are 20 pounds overweight and put them in a fat suit and make fat jokes about people who are 500 pounds, you can't say it's ok because you are fat too, and think it will fly.
It takes a whole lot more than that to offend me but I knew how it would be perceived. In other postings they may not tell you but they will get the same vibe.
Thanks for the comments. I'm not sure we could have stated more clearly that our kids are really autistic. As far as making more of these, I will be editing a longer version but it won't be posted on this site. It's such a personal topic, I prefer to post it where it's not subject to the occasional douche-bag comment.
I thought the same thing. You need to re-edit stating that the kids really are autistic in the beginning. Comes off as healthy kids making fun of Autistic.

Apparently you need to make more of these as there are many people clueless about autism.
This is subtle, yet direct. Love it.
Touching.
