How unfortunate for the teacher, yet the students quick actions turned this story into a heart warming tale of a child saving his teacher.

about time hearing something good about auties for once instead of media usually ignoring it and only showing those who have done something bad.

I agree. I am so sick of hearing of celebrity wanna bees proclaiming they are on the spectrum when they are caught in wrong doing. It was refreshing to hear something positive for a change! Now - we need to hear more about female aspies. :wink: Positive things, I mean.

Wait, that can't be right. Autistics can only stab people. I heard it on the news!
