Bed Punishment Was the Boy likely to have been Autistic?

David

I heard a little boy about nine years old in my local park scream he does not want to go to bed.

It was about 4PM.

Pulled the lady  he was with probably his Mother.

A lot of the time she was on her mobile talking about the number of people in the park.

A girl probably his younger sister comforted him.

The apparent Mother ignored the screaming and being pulled about.

Many people in the Mothers situation would have hit the boy.

I asked the NSPC by E Mail who was abused.

They said that if I could identify the child I could report it.

There are two sides here.

One side is that children should not be put to bed during the day for punishment so he was right to resist.

 

The other side is that children should obey their Mothers.

I have been told many times that I should accept authority even if it is wrong.

Was that little boy likely to have been Autistic.?

  • I have moved on from the subject of Bed punishment but I want to keep all the post together.  Well the only relevence is that it has to do with obeying orders.

     

    I was suggesting that it is typically British to always obey the law and orders when they are wrong.  That is probably wrong as that does not only apply to British people but to other nationalities as well.

    I think the British believe in being rigid about enforcing the law.

    Other EEC countries do not enforce the EEC rules as rigidly as the British.

    For example teachers now even get into trouble for defending themselves against children who attack them.

    In other words a teacher could be prosecuted for hitting a child back although it could count as restraint.

    Other British traits are

    Taking turns in queues

    Being farily reserved.

    Speaking quietly.

    Sadly it has become a British habbit for some to get drunk on a Friday Night.

    I think as we have become a global village the difference between different nationalities is less big than it used to be so I am not sure we should sterotype British people.
