[quote=Anonymous]This is not a comment on OP's specific situation or the incident she describes, but my ASD 2nd grader has been called weird quite a few times and seems to embrace it. She knows she's different and accepts it. In particular, the class bully (who in fact has hit more than one child over the years, though not her) has called her weird on several occasions, but she's never been bothered by it so the bully now leaves her alone and in fact almost respects her. FYI that I have never taught her how to respond in such situations, though hopefully I have something to do with the fact that she accepts herself, ASD and all.[/quote]
