I am learning that this forum is all about engineering the image of those with autism or on the "spectrum" in a positive-only way, and that affects the credibility of those parents and their cause, as it were.[/quote]

OK this is simply outrageous.  As the mother of a DS with autism, it is an absolute lie.  How many posts have I read here about kids with ASDs who have tantrums, act violently, act inappropriately.  How many posts have I read from parents who feel like they have failed?  Far, FAR more posts than I have read here that say "my child with autism is perfectly well behaved and I am a perfect parent."

[b]As a teacher, you wouldn't last in mine, dear[/b].[/quote]

Dear?  
Give me a break.    
Vote with your feet and move along if things are so tough in your shoes.  
Being a parent is a lifetime of "our shoes."

And please list your school and grade level so that any unfortunate pps can avoid your classroom.[/quote]
