To be honest I don't know how any normal kid or sane adult can handle or enjoy that kind of chitshow and circus. Looks like a living hell no matter who it would be. Not one bit looks enjoyable or likable. If a family member asked me to put myself in that kind of limelight for any reason I'd tell them to go sit and spin on it.
G, It's not just that kid is weird or that we are using him as a target. To say the would be to assume that everybody who has raised concerned about this, is coming from a place of malice, in including me, and Sharonna, let's say. Now, I don't dispute that there are some people out there that are using this kid for their own purposes to, I don't know, embarrass Trump, I suppose. But I part from the premise that none of us are like that. I could accept the argument of a child being overstimulated, G, but not of the child being disconnected. And that's the sign a lot of people with close experience with Autism are reacting to. If I'm at the Supermarket and a stranger tells me he thinks there may be something wrong with my kid, I would take it as being concerned. Not as him making fun of my kid. Am I looking at it wrong?
No you're not taking it wrong. I think you are misplacing what I was saying is political fodder. I was taking this statement as using it as fodder ""It is very interesting as well to see TRUMP giving speeches on autism. I mean, when does he ever back a disease? Does he talk about cancer, or MS or Cerebral Palsy? Never." Not the discussion in general. I assumed, possibly incorrectly, that Shoranna was using Trump's focus on autism as opposed to other conditions as a slight against Trump. That he only cares about autism because his kid has it. It could be true but it's speculative if that was the intent and kinda uses his child against him. I could be wrong and read into something that isn't there.

Of course it is all speculative, of coure! You superbly right on that. Not I, nor any of the people's who have opined on this video know anything. All we have are opinions and we know what they say about those. Thank you for indulging me, Glis.
I have a twisted sense of humor. I love offensive and off color jokes when they are just for shock value alone. Even jokes about children. However when it comes down to it and real children or individuals I can get very defensive on their behalf.
You should really learn how to interpret a question.
I think this little boy is autistic. He has all the signs.
Why would I need to crawl anywhere? I am not bashing Donald Trump. His child has a mental disorder.
Grow up. Learn what Autism is and get out from under the rock YOU are living in.
Autism doesn't mean you are stupid. Attacking me? That is really seriously stupid. This child has all the signs of autism, including being brilliant. He is a computer genius. I know this. Many who suffer this disease have great technical skills and because they are incapable of developing social skills as easily as the rest of society, they are naturally capable of focusing on matters that most of us cannot concentrate on to that degree for that long of a period of time.
If you actually read the question and watched the tape, you would see that I am asking a question which CONCERNS me. I fail to see why this attempt to understand this child means I should be ashamed.
I think Donald Trump and his wife love this boy beyond measure. This is one of the good sides they have. SO, I am going to give you a big break because I know I say loads of hateful things about TRUMP.
I do not feel this way about an innocent little boy who has an obstacle to overcome that I am very interested in learning about.
So? Chill out. He IS probably autistic. He is also very smart. OKAY?
While I agree the question was in dubious taste, do you think you could slurp the Trumps any harder? Next you'll be telling us Eric Trump is the political genius who will bring peace to the Middle East.
I'm trying not to get too sensitive about this, but what is in dubious tatste? I posted a positive question. I said this was serious, there was a tape and I wanted to see if this seems accurate. If he had cancer and I noticed a tumor in his eye I might have done the same type of question. It was totally objective and really shown a light on the plight of this little boy, what his dad may be learning from having a son who is not "the norm" but highly intelligent, and many triggers that I, as a future therapist (for yes, OS, that is the way I think we may both think sometimes, as therapists) am quite objectively interested in.
I was not trying to pick on him nor shine a light on some perceived weakness. My hatred of Donald Trump does not extend to this child. Even though I did rip him some for that name of his.
@Sharona -- My reply didn't file in the right hierarchical place. I was poking fun at Cruiser being excessively fawning over the Trumps (Donald, Barraon, whomever).
I have been in bed the last few days, I was not feeling good at all, so sorry if I have not replied till now. Thanks for answering. I know this site can cause some real confusion sometimes when the person whom you are intending the comment for misses it or worse, still, you say something to someone and someone else thinks it is intended for them.
I remember on Answer Bag you always answered the person with @Sharonna or whatever. Sometimes this site does not show whom the answer was for. So, I have to get in the habit, once more, of doing that just for insurance.
