[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They may try the ASD/Aspergers-autism defense bc they will likely try anything and everything, but I'm not aware that people with ASD are into harming others. Sure they may not understand situations with other people or emotions or miss the point of the joke/conversation sometimes, but I think they do understand the big things like "don't leave a 3 yr old alone." Plus how many people with ASD would be so desperate to go to a wine tasting? The stereotype is loners, not social butterflies.

As for the "I'm from France, I don't know any better and that's what we do there" -- eh, I don't see it. His wife is from here and she ought to know. Plus looking at his LinkedIn, it looks like he got a masters in Europe in 2000 and after that all of his jobs seem to be in the U.S. in the DC area (didn't look at each and every one but just by company name) -- that means he's been in the U.S. for a decade and a half and didn't just fall off the boat yesterday.[/quote]

I wish people would stop saying he did this because he is French.  This is as UN-French as it gets.  (I recently returned from living there). [/quote]

I am French and already posted here pages ago we don't do this at all.  Denmark and scandanavian countries do the strollers outside restaurants.  In France we have babysitters or we bring our kids, in fact at happy hours they have specials for kids (grenadine, etc). So stop with the anti France talk.

Perhaps the parents are just assholes regardless of their national heritage.[/quote]
