[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP. In the future I will start all posts in the special needs forum with “this is a post in the special needs forum about a child with special needs.” Or maybe that won’t matter.

FWIW the people who get super offended when she corrects them in public are the know-it-alls who are wrong about something. . .whiiiiiich kind of reminds me of some of the folks responding to my question here. This whole DCUM experience is making me care a whole lot less about whether these strangers are offended by my child, who is honestly trying her best in a world not built for her. So this thread has been helpful. Thanks, all.[/quote]

The world wasn't "built for her"?   You mean the world should be a place where when people are in public they can get interrupted and corrected by a rude child, or their 2 year old can get screamed at for saying the words "baby pigs"?    That kind of world?

I think that attitude is incredibly selfish and inconsiderate of everyone else's lives.   It is not appropriate for ANYONE to do some of those things, for good reason.    And not teaching ANY  child that there is proper behavior and improper behavior in the world does our whole society a disservice, your child included, and regardless of their "need" to correct someone, and regardless of how what they may have the desire to say and do.  There have to be basic societal rules, regardless of what someone else feels.
+1 My friend’s child has ASD and when he says things that are slightly rude, she gently reminds him that it is impolite to say xyz, how about rephrasing it like this? And we move on. OP is doing a disservice to their child in blaming others for calling that rude which is rude.
