Guest guest Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 I just read posted comments on this story on the GMA website. How sad and pathetic to see people attack others who are different from themselves. People actually made comments joking about harming this child. They're sick - the kind of people who would have been Nazis at a different time and place (may be now for all we know). Two years ago, I had a bad experience with American as well with my wife and son before I knew he was autistic. They are horrible - I just didn't have the energy to fight back and complain after the flight ended. Not now! No one has the right to treat our children this way - individuals or companies.

Guest guest Posted June 26, 2008 Report Share Posted June 26, 2008 Isn't this the time when Autism Speaks, the Autism Society of America , all the other Autism and disability groups be on all the news shows " raising %^^** & " for this display of public ignorance and humiliating treatment of children with Autism and their parents. Maybe it is about time the all airlines train their crew on how to handle and accommodate people with Autism. As for the public, reading some of these comments is an " embarrassment " to me as an American. Re:Wed./GMA/7:30 a.m. Late Breaking! I just read posted comments on this story on the GMA website.
