Really! He's 5! What was she thinking.

I'd love to hear her side of things because I can't even imagine how an adult could think this was a good idea. Even if he didn't have AS--and it's beyond unconscionable to treat a child with AS like this!--I can't imagine thinking that you're doing anyone any good with this sort of action.

It sounds like she'd just had it with him, and she lashed out. But what an awful way to lash out! Just rotten.
