wrongly accused

[Guest guest]

My son was invited over a home along with alot of children to get a

sports team started. I dropped him off. My son told me when I

picked him up that a boy got bit by another child. boy " A " told his

father that boy " B " got bit. So the father told my son " Don't bit

anyone " ! of course my son had an AS moment and said nothing. He has

a hard time when it comes time to defend himself. When he does try

to defend himself. It looks more & more like he was the guilty

one. Well the boy that got bit, did say, it was not him. (my son)

it was - and identified the boy that bit him. This boy that bit him

has no IEP and has worse social skills than my son. He is always in

trouble & starts trouble. but he was taught to immediately say, it

was an accident, are you O.K.? hummmm. The reason why I'm posting

this is because I was so angry that my son automatically got

accused! The boy that did the biting has a known bad

reputation/inappropriate behavior. The man did apologize to my son,

(according to my son) but I'm still upset that he just accused my

son without asking first who did the bitting? Like someone posted

before. AS children are automatic/easy targets. I went through a

lot of feelings. I wanted to take my son off the team,(he is on

that bitting boys team) or say something to the adult that accused

my son or do nothing and see what else happens. - Rose
