People judging

Shesco

I may sound like I'm on a rant but in fact I'm feeling so upset. My teenage son is autistic and suffers from depression. He's not had a great week then tonight he had a huge tantrum and threatened to hurt himself...in the middle of this my neighbour knocked at the door and said we were stopping his granddaughter getting to sleep..then it hit me...Why can't people show an empathy and understanding for our children. I am trying my best and all people do is judge, why not compassion? Does anyone else understand how I'm feeling?

    Can I suggest you look at the previous posts about noisy neighbours?

    community.autism.org.uk/.../"noisy neighbours"

    There are two sides to this problem. Autistic people are just as likely to suffer from the hell of having noisy neighbours as they are of being the noisy neighbour themselves.

    If you do go round then you could apologise for the noise but explain that the problem is your child's autism and try to get them on your side and try to get some sympathy from them. Appeal for help rather than go in fighting.
