Top Ten Worst Ways to Annoy an Autistic Child

I know that some people were able to overcome their autism. - Therandom

I have a sister that's autistic. She hates it when people talk about her when she's right next to them. She hates it when they think she's stupid and can't learn but she can learn! She's as smart as me! *growls*

They are actually really smart,people who haven't been around autistic children for long just can't see it.They have exceptionally good memory too.

It's important to recognize that other people have different perspectives than yours, and that those perspectives are not automatically less valid. What is an annoyance to a non-autistic person can be physically painful to an autistic person. It takes an incredible amount of patience and strength to navigate an inaccessible, hostile, un-accommodating world. Autistics are putting up with much more than non-autistics realize. Telling other people how to feel is so dismissive and rude. Let people experience their feelings; you don't know what they're going through and you aren't the boss of them.

This should be Number One on this list because it's bullying autistic people, which they don't deserve.

Pain in a neck

They need a spanking

If people did that to me, I would diss them out, and then go rant about society. - Pony

I wish there were more autistic kids in my school. - RockFashionista

If someone said that to me, it would upset me in a way because I get obsessed over things all the time. - Pony

It's true. I'm autistic and I get easily obsessed with things. Like if I pick out a Lord of the Rings character I instantly become obsessed with it.

I have many obsessions, and I don't have autism, so I think everyone is obsessed with something. - Therandom

I'm obssessed with The Wiggles and The Simpson's I have autism

Saying that they're retarded is not okay, and besides, the word is really offensive towards them, because it affects them the most. So saying that to them is really offensive in the first place.

I have no desire to make friends, and yet everyone expects I do. - RockFashionista

Like I have autism and if someone did that I'd be like hey stop looking at me and would want to punch em in the face

Yea I know it's weird because if someone stared at me I would feel weird. This is not nice for everyone - AlphaQ

I'm not kidding, my sister does this just to bother me, and I SCREAM at her because I hate it so much. - RockFashionista

I'm not autistic but I hate being ordered around like that 24/7 - AlphaQ

Unless you're a really good actor, I don't think you could fake autism. - RockFashionista

I don't think that's really even possible - ToptenPizza

Falcon Touch! Falcon Touch! Haha! 😄

Oh my god, This isn't right.

Heck, this would annoy ANYONE, autistic or not. The same goes for pretty much everything on this list. - sketchysteve
