the question is based on what i seen with my own eyes to my niece and what happen to me growing up, my niece was 3 at the time have aspergers and trouble talking, one day at the park me and a friend took her to a park i notice how she tried to play with the other little girls there but due to the fact of her speech delay when she tried to talk to them they just looked at her like she was a monster, and then they all started to play a game with one of their ball, i said to my friend i wonder why they didnt want D to play with them his response was she would'nt be able to fellow direction i said just cause she dont talk yet dont mean she wont understand what is being said, then he said that may be right but since she cant communicated with them they kids they dont undrestand whats going on ( [b]ok little of topic i know but one day at the park when D had her ball in that was the only ball all of a sudden all the kids wanted to play with her her communicaion defect did not matter and also when they told her the game she follow the direction just like all the other kids)

its funny how then they had no problem right lmao. but also that same person said D never play with the other kids she only play by her self which leads me to have a flash back because he made in excused of why they didn't want to play with her which is mainly saying its her fault for having autism and when she play by her self she is a bad person for doing so, now i say this took me on a flash back because when i was little in elementary especially when i move to regular aide when i tired to communicated with the other kids most of the time they would not even want to touch me so the principle and teacher would say they just kids they don't understand Monique is different from them, but then when i go off by myself with a book or a note book or just a stuff doll that i whisper too, everyone thought i was tooooo anti social. so i hate it don't take 1 to make friends is a two way street you can only do your share in wait but waiting some times you must say okay they don't like me,

Most people seem to underestimate what a child can understand and do. When things are properly explained to children they try to understand.

I believe MONIQUEIJ meant a "double standard", as in a set of principles containing different provisions for one group of people than for another.
