[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The video I saw didn’t involve anyone getting “punched out.” Perhaps there’s a longer version I didn’t see?

I assume the football player holding the other end of the banner is the other student who was involved in the altercation? The principal is treating this like two kids who got into a fight are taking responsibility for their actions, have worked out some understanding, and no longer have a beef. Everyone else is exploiting the fact that (allegedly) one of the students has autism. I’m the parent of a high school student who is on the spectrum. [b]It feels to me like posters who keep bringing up autism have their own agenda.[/b][/quote]

+1 Kids with autism can still start fights. I don't know what happened in that video, except that it starts mid-fight and both kids get some licks in, but it would be ludicious to assume that a child with autism could not have possibly been an equal party to a conflict, or that any conflict that involves a student on the spectrum is "bullying."

Autistic kids are kids. Sometimes kids get into fights that are not bullying. Therefore, by the transitive property, sometimes autistic kids get into fights that are not bullying. [/quote]

That's not how the transitive property works.
