Responding to people who want to kill their children.

I think we need to look beyond our emotions here. This a person who is struggling to cope with a child who is suffering in a different world. We can not ignore these cries for help, simply because we find them offensive. We need to address the fear and hate being created by the medical establishment and the school system. We need to tell people what we need. Don't look at the mother, look at her environment. I was given 2 pet rats, who lived in a small cage with little food. The previous owner said the mother only had 1 or 2 babies at a time and that she had ate them. I took the same 2 rats and gave them half a room plenty of food and even a small fountain. To my surprise the mother rat not only produced and raised 16 babies but she defended them viciously. It is normal for a mammalian mother to kill a child to prevent suffering, when there are no other options. Have faith that a mother well protect her children. Understand that some children have more complex needs. Help these parents understand, help give them the hope Autism Speaks takes away.
