- An Oregon family traveling with a 15-year old girl with autism was kicked of a United airlines flight for what the airline calls “a disruptive situation.” Carter Evans reports.
United airlines again?
What do you mean "again"? Have they been involved in something before too?

@@goshagrandchild6500 It’s a meme. Kinda like a joke but different.
I noticed it too :D
I think this has more to do with the mother’s reaction. She told the flight attendant that the child could have a meltdown and scratch people. I think the captain made a decision based off the future threat she posed-all relayed by the flight attendant.
There's nothing wrong with tranquilizer pills like trazodone or a small straight jacket if such is the case if it autistic child is indeed capable of violence like that in a situation like an airplane.
Yeah, that really made her seem more dangerous than intended.
I agree. And, if the child reacts that way to being hungry, why didn’t the mother bring snacks for her “picky eater”? It’s not up to the airline to have an assortment of foods on board. Parents need to take responsiblity..... and THINK ahead.
Yes because an 8 year old girl is so dangerous and gonna crash a plane. An 8 year old autistic girl who can’t control how her brain is is such a terrible disturbance to everyone and she should be not allowed to fly on planes because of how her brain is.
@@carolbentley4718 so right
I have a kid with Autism. As a parent, you know your child's triggers and you are prepared for them. Her parents failed her. They expected others to deal with their lack of preparation. I would have had Mac & cheese ready to go. (The only food my son would eat consistently.)
Finally someone gets it 👍
Thank you
Amen her parents failed her, period!
Great comment! I always bring my battery powered hot plate so I can boil water on the plane, and cook the macaroni that I purchased in the airport gift shop. (You can't bring food through airport security, dummdumb 🙄)
The original comment and all of these replies were 100% written by the airline staff and lawyers 😂😂😂 This is one of the dumbest comments ever written, and nobody who has a kid with autism would ever say something so ignorant.
*kick a child off a airplane for playing a laptop on the lunch table and make weird noise*
*didnt kick a baby screaming for a 8 hour*
world's logic
Nah, he was screaming for the *WHOLE 8 HOUR FLIGHT*
I know it's sooooooo stupid!
@Skillzworthy :D 8 hours meh dude
This girl is bigger than a baby and can cause harm
@Skillzworthy :D welp now im apparently brain dead
what kind of “threat” did she make? disgusting.

Disturbance
spite thy first of all, she is NOT a disturbance, there’s literally no other way she can communicate while she’s frustrated. second, “disturbance” is not a threat.
@@user-su7ls6tf2m I didnt say a disturbance is a threat, but it's not my fault she's like that I wouldn't want someone screaming beside me.
*"How about if we wait for her to have a melt down... and then you'll want to help her." In other words, "It will be your fault, if she goes off the rails, not mine."*
its called not their fault, its yours mom!!
Bruh, parents are not Minecraft Creative mode gods that control everything
sure if she scratches you. not me. or next time the mother thinks and brings food to warm up in the plane
That comment is what hurt her cause. The pilot might have made a snap decision to re-land the plane because of the kids massive tantrum, plus that entitled comment. Chaos of a plane is completely different from chaos in your house.
Airlines need to be required to have training on handling someone with special needs. She cannot control her actions like we can. I know because I spent most of my teen and early adult years caring for people.
Then she shouldt fly. Or the mom should carry special food for her.
Flying is not some kind of right u have. U have to ba able to follow the rules. Period

I feel so sorry for the parents in that situation. Their lot in life is hard enough as it is. United Airlines just went ahead and made it a lot harder. With the public humiliation being the cherry on top.
It seems like this could have been averted if the parents had brought food for the girl.
It’s always about the parents when talking about autistic children. Why can’t you have sympathy for the whole family?
Maybe don’t threaten the staff then?
We should start a nationwide boycott of United Airlines. Maybe get some autism advocacy organizations involved in organizing that boycott. This should get a lot more publicity than just one CBS news station.
Aren't you sorry for the girl?
I'm autistic. Her mother suggested that she might scratch which suggests violence. The airline had no choice once the mother mentioned possible violence. She should be carrying snacks. I fly with a huge sack of chewy candy. Why? Because I'm less likely to freak out and disturb people if I've got something tasty and chewy to pop my ears and keep me occupied. The airline did what they needed to do. If I'm on a plane and I see another autistic person melt down, I will melt down. Maybe don't fly if you can't handle bringing everything she needs for a trip? And never ever bring up violence.
Nah you're just ableist, just say that.
Thank you for being reasonable
I’m autistic too, but those of us who are reasonable and logical about situations like this will still be labeled ableist.
@@rachelfourie9083100% and I’m autistic as well. Just because we are disabled that does not mean the rules shouldn’t apply to us and using it as an excuse to get away with things is unacceptable.
I don't know whether she be allowed to carry snacks on board.
Disgusting. My sister is autistic, it isn’t their fault it’s a mental disability, that kid screaming for 8 hours should’ve been kicked off.

@Странно Хрипы You are a horrible person and should be ashamed of yourself.
Just saying if she was screaming and like boucin i wouldbt feel safe oure mental
The parents were supposed to make prior arrangements with the airlines with regards to their special needs child and informing them over his/her conditions that might trigger discomfort to other passengers or trigger safety concerns for the crew. Most airlines would gladly accommodate, assuming early arrangements had been made.
But no, the mother thinks the world will stop turning for her kid as long as she whips out the "disabled" card at her convenience.
it was soooooooooooo easy for her mother to prevent this
You obviously don’t have a child with autism. Shut and reserve judgement for yourself.
How the hell would you know?
I like how all the comments are skimming over that me fact that the mom said she’ll start screaming and scratching. That’s kind of a threat to other passengers.
Screaming is not a threat, and she probably meant scratching herself (it's a common way of stimming for some autistic people), unlikely the mother would have allowed her to scratch another person without disciplining her.
@@dinohall2595 and it's hard to scratch people from a plane seat. maybe her mum next to her, but that'd be agression rather than frustration which seems more like the way this would play out.

I love how the person who said this is named “Karen”
This is truly unacceptable. The kid did nothing wrong.
Ohhh it all makes sense now
Hoodoo right now and then we have a
The kid did nothing wrong. My best guess is it was caused by the mothers statement of waiting until she has a meltdown and starts scratching. If she had just left out the part about scratching they likely would have been okay.
Adding to it, hot meals are available inside the airport. Did they try to feed her before boarding. Not all domestic flights have hot meals on board.
The parents did something wrong: they didn’t bring food for their kid.
@@johnp139 the mother said the daughter is a picky eater and like hot meals.
They asked for a hot Meal from first class and were told “no”.
As a parent of a child with autism, it is the parents responsibility to make sure they have everything they need for their child to thrive in outside environments. This mother should have packed or bought food prior and been prepared for this flight it is noones responsibility, but the caregiver of the child. She also could have communicated better to the flight attendant....

Yeah but they didn't kick a screaming kid for 8 hours
I'd rather a screaming kid than someone who is screaming scratching, running around the isle kicking and punching
Abraham Adams yeah me too
Not the same airlines...
Abraham Adams I'd rather get punched than screamed at. If someone punches you first then it's ok to knock them out.
Ivy Edan Don’t mention that....that video triggers me
So the mother warned if the poor child can’t be accommodated, she will act out violently? Yes, you don’t fly. Sorry but it’s a safety issue.
This video always stuck with me, this poor girl looked so miserable here. To think she's 22 by now... hope she's doing well
She gets kicked out for nothing and the kid kicking my seat and crying screaming and yelling doesn’t ?

Hm, they kicked them off because she made random noises, yet they don't see a problem with a baby wailing for 6 hours straight
Poor philosophical argument. A crying baby is irritating but not a potential threat to passengers and crew.
@@demiurgiac yes but she made quiter noises for less time
@@demiurgiac how is she a threat tho
Because you can't easily control a baby. But a kid can
@@demiurgiac its a threat to their eardrums
Mom’s phrasing is what did it, basically demanded to give her a hot meal from 1st class or she will have a ‘meltdown’ and start to ‘scratch’. This was repeated to the pilot, and he said nope, not on my plane. Was justified, the mom caused it not the girl.
In my opinion, the parents needed to let the airline know beforehand, of their daughter's requirements during the flight. Even better, they could have had food in a thermos container, knowing how their daughter would act when hungry. The parents are responsible for their daughters care.
I agree with the bringing a thermos for Juliette. Note to the parents: talk to her doc about possibly using a sedative for these behaviors
In my view: ALWAYS BLAME ZE DGOOZE!
"That's gonna be a lawsuit" damn even the passengers know this isn't right
If the mother had not made them aware that this girl could be a threat they could have stayed but after the mother TOLD THEM she could get upset and have a fit and start scratching someone....she became a threat and they had to remove her, The mother caused all this nonsense and I wonder why the mother didn't get her some favorite foods for the trip if she KNEW the child acted crazy if she gets hungry?

@@moonlight-fs8fz me too. I can't understand how people who are clearly mentally unwell get kicked off but kids who are purposefully being annoying get away with it
@@muani_hrahsel haha funny how we all came from that video
I was thinking about the same
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Clearly the mother knows how her daughter acts when hungry or thirsty. Why was she clearly NOT prepared for that possibility prior to board the plane? This was not the airlines responsibility.
Thankyou
That's what I thought as well. I know parents who bring along activity bags and snacks for their kids while on flight. She should also have packed some food for her child as well. I mean, she's had her daughter for 15 years, one would think she should have been prepared for when her child acts out by now.
True that’s the main reason why they deserved to be kicked off it serves them right for being an annoyance to people.
You another Karen.
And maybe give Juliette a mild sedative (if her doc is ok with it)
Everybody commenting on how awful they were for kicking them off the plane, but nobody gonna talk about how the mom used her kids disability to get something from first class. She already knew what was going to happen, but they didn't want to pay for the seats for better service.
Are you aware that often now the only food on the plane is in first class? Mom should have brought food along for this eventuality, but she was willing to pay not pandering for a free meal.
@@pambronson4467 if she was willing to pay she would've paid ahead. Don't play the stupid or nieve game. She's a grown women, and knows better. She has obviously traveled before.
@@pambronson4467 They skipped over that crucial detail in the video, but hot meals are often included in first class as part of the ticket. As in, they can't be bought or priced separately.

Jen Chub Lol, I'll be stealing your comment
Jen Chub I bet United airlines will be plagued with so many lawsuits for the future if they do not change. Not only the autism issue, what about dragging a passenger off a plane in an in humane way?
What exactly was the threat Karen? She wasn’t gonna attack anyone she wasn’t gonna hurt anyone. SHE WANTED FOOD!
Scratch and kick yeah definitely doesn’t sound like hurting
She’s wasting food
How about packing or bringing food with them as an emergency measure 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Also all food isn’t good for her and many airports don’t have exclusive options that fit all people’s needs.
I know right?!
This is so disgusting- they need to more informed
No I don’t I can very much assure you’ve lived it and went to school also for it -
Lol if they can't handle a small girl then there is no effective plane safety " on that plane
I feel for the girl. I'm sorry she was treated that way. But I also believe her parents could have planned better to make her flight smoother. You can pack food or snacks for her. Or preorder a meal on the flight. But making a threat is not ok. The staff is not paid to cater to your child. Some are kind enough to assist you but to demand it is a totally wrong.
This is worded so well and compassionate for the child. I also thought it was strange when the mother was like, well you’re gonna want to give that first-class food. If she knew ahead of time what it’s going to be like, then why couldn’t she prepare ahead of time?
Thank you!!! Her parents depended on the airline to get her food...They knew she would melt down!!
@@sharonvogel4697 OMG, do any of you have an autistic child, I’m thinking no, so shut up, you have no idea. Yes I have a autistic child.
I have another suggestion: Talk to her doctor about the behavioral issues, and see if she needs a sedative. If yes, bring it with you everywhere you go
A baby was crying the whole time on an eight hour flight and that pilot didn't make an emergency landing???? This is ridiculous...
pancakes 8 the baby can’t talk
Are you comparing babies to an autistic child?
God bless you
Swen Swen hes allowed to. and i agree with. low functio autists are on par with infants.

The fact she said “how about we wait till she has a meltdown and she starts scratching” indicates she was almost holding the staff to ransom with the threat of her daughters behavioural issues. Can’t say I blame them if it was in the vain I’ve seen a lot of customers threaten in my prior jobs.
No. That mother stood up for her child. Explaining cause and effect does not a threat make.
I agree with you. I used to work as Cabin Crew and safety is the number 1 priority in the air. This girl`s needs are not more important than the safety of everyone onboard. I`ve also worked as a Carer looking after autistic people and whilst I sympathise to a degree with dealing with disabled people`s behaviours, it does not allow you to be spoilt and entitled.
@@annaharward9295 and if I stood up for my own child by insisting that they’ll bring violence onto you if you don’t comply with their needs?
Absolutely agree, the mom was the one making threats, not the daughter. I don't work in the airline industry but I imagine in first class they only have so many meals for so many passengers. If you take away a meal that passenger in first class doesn't eat? I don't know, but you can't expect the staff to have esp, Mom should have talked to the airline when she bought the tickets and told them of her daughter's situation, period.
@@lepolhart3242 but if her needs are met, The cabin is safe, which is what people are coincidentally forgetting.
How is it a safety issue?? She is just hungry af
Ata Sancaktar don't you DARE call anyone, especially someone who can't control it, a "savage animal" or something similar ever again. that is entirely inappropriate and you should be ashamed for attacking her like this. she can't control her outbursts, and she shouldn't be labeled like that for anything she can't control. if anyone is the "savage animal" as you put it, it's you for attacking someone who can't protect herself in return.
First of all, I didn't claim otherwise. Second, you have zero authority over me, so I will just keep on doing that. What are you gonna do, find my home address and send me a strong-worded letter?
what did you mean, you didn't claim otherwise? you called her a "savage animal" plain and simple. there's no denying that. and I know that I can't stop you from doing anything, but I hope to at least get through to you that you should be ashamed of yourself for saying that.
Anna Senk yeah I have Aspergers Syndrome and I can control my outbursts and if I was on that plane I'd be uncomfortable cause she's acting weird
Ata Sancaktar You have no right attacking her. As an autistic person, I think that you should be reported.

@Wolf Royalty FINALLY A SANE PERSON AND UNIQUE POINT OF VIEW jesus
Ok fifth time trying to reply and I have to say my brother would most likely be more annoying because he is very loud me and parents have separate rooms and across the hallway with their door and my door closed I can hear my brother crying across the hall and in one incident you see my brother was crying so hard not only could I hear him in the basement while he was all the way upstairs when I picked him up I could feel his sweat and when he was done I could hear him kind of gasping for air and if they think the girl was annoying and would be a threat think again well what the airline did with that comment was kind of immature was the captain did was kind of dude yet reasonable (kind of) to why do I say this well if something did happen well what about all the other passengers safety and if not that then wouldn't the captain be nervous that could not only affect this plane but also all the passengers on board but still the whole thing with the flight attendant and airline comment all of that downright rude and immature what the captain did in the middle (also my brother is only 5months and we haven't actually been in a plane yet with him do to the pandemic so don't blame him)
As a person with autism, I need to say the pilot is allowed to draw his own boundaries.
I don't even think it was that. I think it was more the mother's reaction like the crew had to sell her a first class meal. Like you saw her reaction here (she didn't hide it). I feel like that may have played a part in them getting kicked off.
God bless you.
The world cannot adjust just for your kid! Sorry!!
Purchasing an onboard hot meal is a reasonable request.

@Ablaze Eclipse search them up
She essentially admits she demanded the meal with the threat of the daughter getting violent. All people deserve compassion but that doesn't mean submitting to demands under the threat of violence while flying in a plane. Rent a car. Have her scratch your face on the freeway.
"Meltdown and scratching herself" is not violence towards others, any more than someone getting a seizure due to low blood sugar or similar. What I do find a bit strange though, is why they did not pack snacks. Might be that there is none that fits her needs that are seen as plane-safe, but it is a bit unlikely.
@@goingslowlynowhere Maybe I'm missing the part where she says she'd start scratching "herself". I just heard the mother say that in order to get a first class meal she told the attendant "How about if we wait for her to have a meltdown and then she's crying and tries to scratch... and then you'll want to help her..." . That sounds like a threat. I'm entirely open to the possibility that I somehow missed it at some other point in the video but the quote makes it seem like a threat.
I am not sure if it was this interview or another I did see with her, they blend together a bit. Yet, if it is one missing word that has made it into a "threat", it is worrying that they are jumping to the conclusion of that is the case.
The whole case is messy, and seems to have been caused by lack of training of the staff, and lack of planning from the parents' side. Combined, that does not tend to go well.

If mom knows how she acts when she gets hungry then she should have brought snacks or food at the airport to bring on the plane.

Not if she wasn't allowed to take food on board. I'm not sure about all airlines. But I know some don't allow people to take food or drink on with them. I believe it includes baby formula. But could be wrong
Im dead
Just take the internet, take it.
I knew someone was gonna comment that
I knew someone was gonna comment that
There was definitely a threat made. “Do you want to wait until she has a meltdown and she starts scratching?”
I think it was the comment that they wait for her to get upset and scratch that caused them to get booted. Flight crews take comments regarding aggression VERY seriously.
Adding to it, if the parents knew that she is triggered when hungry and is a picky eater, they could have brought something to eat on the plane. While you cannot bring drinks through security, you can bring food and even purchase it in the terminal. What would have happened if she didn’t like the airplane food or they didn’t have any. A lot of domestic flights do not have hot meals available.
So a screaming child who can CONTROL what their doing can go on a plane but a girl who CANT control what shes doing gets kicked off....WHAT KIND OF LOGIC IS THAT!?
If she cannot control what's she's doing then she's a potential threat. Congratulations, you played yourself.
Netrical 041 You really like calling people like her a hairless ape
The child you are speaking of was screaming, not a physical threat which the mother used the threat of her child having a tantrum to get what she wanted.
Each crew is different everyone makes a different call.. different situations different people on bored allots of factors. It’s something to talk about but I wouldn’t go yelling at them for making the decision if you listen to all the facts displayed in the video it’s not that shocking. She implies that her daughter could go into a kicking scratching tantrum and she’s much bigger than that little boy. I’m not saying it was the best decision overall but it what they felt was best for the liability and “safety” of the passengers.
Literally had someone watching her the entire time making sure THIS DIDNT HAPPEN. She is quite literally her owner and helper.
"The captain said they weren't comfortable"
*kid screams for 8 hours*
captain: um okay
I doubt the cockpit even hears it that far away
The captain is uneducated and doesn't deserve to be in that position in which he has control over so many people's lives if he doesn't know what an autistic person is, and if he thinks they're a "threat"
Karla It doesn’t have to do with being uneducated. If she was being disruptive, the captain may not have had a choice. We try to be as accommodating as possible, but sometimes it isn’t enough. We don’t like having to remove people from flights, ever. What worse yet is it required a diversion.
Dark Sparkle No, the pilots can’t hear anything. It has nothing to do with that.
@@karla3153 if she was saying “boom boom you will all die” then I would understand how she could be seen as a threat. Other than that, not a threat. If she starts running around the plane screaming at people, it could be seen as a threat. She was in her seat making noise. Yes, it is annoying but little kids are so much worse. The mother asked for a meal so she wouldn’t get upset and she was told she couldn’t have one.
People with mental handicaps like that can be frightening. I've had interactions with non verbal men who were quite large and made me really nervous to be around them. If a preteen starts growling and moaning and throwing a fit, it is probably very intimidating. Everyone just has to sit there and take it. Taking flights isn't a very common occurrence in the life of most people, maybe splurge on first class if your kid melts down at being hungry. My daughter is on the spectrum and I would never expect others to change because of my kids behavior, that's just courtesy. It's unfair, and this situation was probably infuriating because airports and flying sucks in general, but the parents probably should have paid for first class if their kid has special needs imo
Everybody wants to act like they would do the right thing all the time
It was Mom’s responsibility to have food and whatever else she needed.

I feel like making an emergency landing is much more disruptive than a little noise.
But a kid screaming demonically for 8 hours straight gets to fly? Unbelievable.
"She was proposing some kind of threat"
Yes the child with a laptop making noises is definitely a threat. 🙄
“Threat”
If anything, some would just be a bit confused cause they don’t know she’s got autism. But is it so hard to mind ya own business
The mom was the threat, telling them she will get upset and act out.

It was the right call. Autism or not, it’s the mom’s responsibility to keep her calm and not disrupt the flight.
I have a brother who is autistic and often makes noises like this when he’s frustrated or just in general. I can’t believe people, especially the full grown adults who were working on that plane, do not understand that children may have different spectrums of autism. Some people can only say so much and some can only make noises such as this to express their feelings. People are so ignorant and uneducated. This is disturbing and heart-breaking.
It wasn't the noises it was the fact the mother said if she didn't get a hot meal she would become violent
HDXD her kid is special needs,she ask for certain accomadations,they refused even they they have to accommodate by law and the parent then said if she doesn’t get her specific needs she will have a violent meltdown which is worse for everyone involved and more of an issue and inconvenience rather than just giving the girl the specific accomadations she needs.even then they gave her the hot meal and everything was fine,the problem was over with yet the pilot decided to “emergency land” and take that amount of hassle just to throw off the autistic girl and her family because he was uncomfortable with having an autistic girl on his flight
if the passenger is disrupting the flight they should removed from the flight regardless of your disability. I once had a mentally disabled individual disrupt a movie I was watching. I was watching Lord of the rings at a Cinema and these mentally ill people spent the entire time making strange noises which ruined the experience for me. If you cannot sit still for a movie without making loud noises then you should not be in cinemas, planes, buses trains, ships, or anything else where there would be a captive audience.
Especially when adults with autism get shamed because they have to live at home and they get harassed for it.
it’s absolutely disgusting that people have the RUDENESS and lack of education and brains to say stuff that could get them beat up, shot, stabbed, or kicked out of a place. I hope people who shame autistic adults for living at home do get beat up maybe they’ll learn to keep their mouth shut in public. I’d deck somebody if they said anything rude to me, tough luck, where I am from you don’t discriminate anyone if you do you’ll be sorry, people I know would smack the daylights out of an angry discriminatory Karen or Karl anyday.
Michael Stewart
Are you kidding me guy? Your not very smart if you say stupid stuff like that. Somebody’s gonna smack or shoot you if you say dumb stuff like that. Get off, before I get you kicked off.
You need to be careful what you say you don’t know who’s around or how someone is going to react. Your not going to start stuff on the tube. I’ve heard enough of your rude, discriminatory nonsense. Take your trash elsewhere.

"She was put of the plane because she was **MAYBE** proposing some kind of a threat at 36,000 feet." bro sybau 💀💀
Yes, terrorist threats always get you thrown off a plane. When her mother said that she would attack other passengers then she had to go. Don't you care about the other passengers?
That is so mean. They kick off people for the most ridiculous reasons, but people who really cuase problems are kept on the plane!! 😑
I'd rather they kick off anyone who looks like they are from the *Middle East* and put them on a separate flight.
Booga04 Minecraft Hypocrites
Ķäsane Ťeam2649 Telling the crew "she has autism she's gonna make noise" doesn't necessarily make it alright. Maybe in some cases it does, but usually it's like saying to the police "I'm mentally unstable, I'm gonna shoot people" see, it's still a problem.
Wynter Rose us middle eastern people fly on much more luxurious airlines such as Etihad airways and don’t get kicked out by cheap over selling flights
Suleiman wow, well done rich boy
There was a kid with autism who once sat behind me in the plane. He was very excited and nervous at the same time because this was his first time on a plane. He was making lots of noise but his father kept calling him down in a productive way. I was the opposite of disgruntled; I felt heart warmed at the father and son bond! His father and I got talking and he explained the situation to me and I told him truthfully that I was not bothered and that I understood :) he was never removed from the plane nor warned by any flight staff. So why did united kick this girl off the plane?
Need more people like you in the world. Thank you xx
to be fair most people who have to sit near autists on plains wouldn't enjoy it and if anything would be disgruntled why should everybody suffer because this girl is a picky eater.
FlaGaLiner - because the idiot mother threatened the crew with the girl's behaviour. She was not kicked off because she is autistic - but because the mother indicated that there would be a problem if she didn't get her own way. And by 'she' I mean the bint mother, not the brat. The example you give is a parent that knows how to parent their child correctly - This mother made zero attempt beforehand to secure help for the child prior to the journey. And it is clearly not a surprise to the mother that the brat behaves as it does. I absolutely support United in this case.
You make me so happy! I love it when people understand these things and are so kind because my little sister has a rare disability and it makes me sad that I have to explain all this stuff to adults when I'm 11
United kicked her off the plane because her mother threatened the staff saying that she would have a meltdown, screech, and scratch other people if they didn't get food. That's a threat. The airline did nothing wrong.
I have autism and let me say this is not my most people think it is. She wasn’t kicked off the plane because she had autism. She was kicked off the plane because her family believes she should receive special treatment and said that she would scratch them if she didn’t get it.
Just because you have autism doesn’t mean the rules don’t apply to you or that you can get exception to the rules , it’s not a school where they can provide special education classes. It’s a plane, where every single passengers expected to follow the rules, regardless of disability. Shame on her parents for thinking she should get exceptional treatment and threaten disorderly behavior if the crew didn’t comply. Autism or not they still have a duty to discipline her and clearly they aren’t doing that. It’s not really the autistic girls fault rather it’s the parents for not disciplining her and taking her on a flight thinking the crew should give her whatever she wants regardless of the rules.
Should have travelled by car instead. The victimhood mentality in society is real, we’re quick to label people as victims based on race gender or disability etc without looking at the story. The old saying goes you can’t judge a book by its cover. As mentioned in the beginning of my comment I have autism and although I am high functioning now it was worse when I was younger, when I was 6 I went on a flight to Disney world and was exited to be on my best behavior and would be kept for Disney world and punished if I misbehaved, the same was expected of me again when I flew a second time at age 11. My parents told me I was to follow the rules like everyone else on board and I have no right to hurt other people just because I’m mad, although I always naturally had an instinct that hurting other people was wrong anyway but still my parents taught scratching and other forms of hitting is not ok.
Read or watch the story before labeling someone as a victim. Ditch the victim mentally and embrace open mindedness
Agreed, well said. I have Aspergers btw.
God bless you.
i don’t have ASD, but i work with children on the spectrum and i have been involved in autism studies for years, correct me if im wrong i don’t want to assume anything i may not know.
Based on my knowledge, autism affects everyone who has it in different ways, hence why its a “spectrum”. For example, some have fluent speech while others are non-verbal. Some are able to care for themselves independently but others need support. Regardless of what the needs are, legally, according to the ADA, individuals with ASD are considered disabled and need to be provided with appropriate accommodations so they can be in a safe environment. I don’t think its special treatment, this girl might not have the best form of impulsion control compared to others with ASD. Everyones brains are different including those with autism. It may also be hard to tell considering past diagnoses like aspergers and kanners no longer exist and have simply been merged into the spectrum. I think this is wrong and the airplane staff failed to follow ADA so provide specific needs. And if the pilot felt uncomfortable, well, then there should have been support staff for the girl or the airline staff needs training on how to accomodate for people with disabilities.
@@jarmamiiim autistic as well and I’m going to say that it is the parents responsibility to inform the airline prior to boarding to arrange accommodations as needed. Just because someone is disabled does not mean they shouldn’t be following the rules just like everyone else. I solely agree that her parents were entitled and they landed because the mother was threatening flight attendants with her daughters meltdown which puts everyone else at risk, not because their daughter is autistic. I feel like a lot of parents are setting their autistic kids up for failure because they coddle them and never teach them boundaries or ever holding them accountable. And yes they are capable of learning no matter where they are on the spectrum. Accommodations should be provided however, their daughter does not give the parents an excuse to be entitled. They are being terrible role models and doing her a disservice by teaching her that this is okay.
Brilliant comment, thank you.

You let a baby scream and cry on the plane so why can’t autistic children?
Control your feelings people
I saw a video of a man who was on a 29 HOUR airplane trip to Berlin, Germany, and a baby screamed the ENTIRE TIME and the crew did NOTHING. but when a autistic girl has a different way of showing her emotions, she and her family are kicked of the plane, as someone with autism, I don't find this fair at all
