If Autism was taught in classrooms, normally developing children would understand these issues some people have no choice of living with. Kids in school with autistic characteristics are easy targets for their typically developing peers.
A study in The New York Times shows that children on the autism spectrum disorder are bullied nearly five times more often than their typically developing peers. Parents of autistic kids think the rate is even higher than that, some feel as if their designated school is unsafe for their child.
