If you have a hard time believing that my child hasn't been yelled at numerous times for things like making faces at babies, growling at them, spitting, not waiting a turn even when I'm there to hold him back, you don't live in my world and Rabat my point.

As for the other kids with autism being similar I didn't say all but seeking reactions is indeed fairly common.

It seems to me that you want everyone to be understanding of you and your child and fail to understand the struggles and needs of all children and parents. Your child has issues. So do others. An autism diagnosis is not an excuse to put yourself or your child on a pedestal.

I'm not saying I'm perfect. I'm the opposite of it. But If my kid spit at someone we would immediately go home. We would work a lot on interactions involving not spitting. One on one play dates, etc. We would have a reminder every time we went to the playground that one spit means we are going home.

What do the professionals that you are working with suggest that you do?

I really suggest that you arrange for some respite care. See if you can get a day for yourself. Go to the beach or just check into a hotel. Sleep. Get mani pedis. Binge on movies. Have a good cry.

+1 million.

Seriously?

This tells me that the two of you haven't taught your kids that they can't have everything they see. My guess is that your kids either snatch other kids toys or throw a tantrum that they can't have it.
