I think there's more instinctual basis for this behavior than anything else. Call it "culling the weaker mancubs from the pack". Kids hyperactive, aspie, or otherwise should learn early on that they're going to have to stand up for themselves and defiantly hold their ground versus attackers REGARDLESS of all but the most crippling of "neurological issues"...

... like Alison eventually learned to while growing up. It isn't impossible, merely that only the Conduct Disorder'd and most Antisocial of kids learn to fight these days. Too many parents aim for "pacifist" while their kids are in school.


I like your theory of how the playgrounds are ran by instinct of children rather than closely monitered by staff.

In this way, are we primal beings even in our most domesticated forms?

I would rather hear a story of an autistic child taking a beating at school and going down as an awareness raising story, rather than of an autistic child getting suspended/expelled for "defending" his or herself.

We go through far too much as children for adults to think they bare the responsibility to subject them to learn ways of coping on their own. Elementary schools need more "special education" for neurotypicals for an improvement in functioning for the entire school in general.

I should not imagine the attacker to have developed a resentfulness against the child with autism for having been reprimanded... What a shame...


Does anybody have the YouTube link? <-- terrible joke
