the aba techs in my classroom looking at me like i'm incompetent bc i let my autistic student play and explore and be silly like every other kid instead of sitting him down and making him run targets all day:
#and bc i talk to him like a person#one of the techs literally told me i shouldn't explain rules to him bc autistic people can't understand when you use a lot of words 🙄🙄🙄#meanwhile i've literally SEEN him disregarding certain rules until i took him aside and explained why they were in place#oh and ofc they hate that i'm more careful about how i touch him lol 🙄#bc i take him by the hand instead of dragging him around like a puppet#and i'm like. conscious of the fact that little kids shouldn't be yanked up off the ground by one arm#do you want to give him a bucket handle fracture? bc that's what's gonna happen if you treat him so rough!!#plus you gotta be extra careful bc he doesn't really vocalize pain#so if something hurts him he might not make noise or say anything#i just. man i wish i could tell them to fuck off#shut me up
