My son is autistic, he is high functioning. He is in a special resource class with about 18 other students. Today during class another child flipped him off, this child pesters my son incessantly and for the most part my son ignores it. It is known in my house we do not swear or use inappropriate hand gestures so my son went to the teachers aide and told him what happened the TA proceeded to yell at my son in front of the entire class and tell him that it means nothing, he then put up both of his middle fingers in my sons face and yelled again it means nothing! I find this to be innapropriate beahvior for anyone in this field, I feel that this should be addressed with the principal of the school and he should be repremanded or fired! I will also add that this teachers assistant tells all of the kids to shut up and yells at them on a regular basis these are special need children for gods sake!
