The Silent Bullying of Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder

"My ASD son continues to be bullied at school, but nobody there seems to take it seriously. His teach said that 'he seems to start the arguments by annoying some of the other students.' O.K. Fine. Maybe this is true, but that doesn't justify bullying. How can I get the school to take this seriously?". P.S. Warning to parents: According to statistics, it is very likely that YOUR child with ASD HAS BEEN or IS BEING bullied. You need to investigate this now - BEFORE your child has been tormented for weeks or months or years! If after your investigation, you discover there has been no bullying against your child, then thank God for it. We changed schools to one that has zero tolerance for bullying and our son is in the playground without supervision and doesn't hit anymore, he is happy and wanting to go to school, stomach up sets are no longer and it was affecting him mentally and physically. The child with autism that is being bullied is being blamed for starting it by annoying others. Not only have there always been the bullying kids, there have been bullying adults who must interact him. Anonymous said... Putting it blunty,the little bastards who make these poor kids life a living hell,usually have 1 or maybe 2 big bastard bullies at home learning them there greedy bombastic bullying ways.

  • I continue to be team file a police report. Try with the school, then if that fails file a report with the school against the child. The age is suprisely low in many states. I've seen it as low as 7 years old. You file enough police reports against a child in a school, and suddenly you've got a very good case to bring to the feds about the school and their negligence. For older children, like preteens, they can even be forcibly removed from the school because the laws they're breaking. People can say you're ruining that other kid's life, but what about your kid. No one was worried about their life being ruined.
