We went to Seaworld this weekend (blasphemy I know, but we've been to DL twice and WDW 15 or 16 times...)
There were a lot of people there (I am assuming they were in a group as they all wore the same shirts) with an autism group. Lots of kids with different reactions and behaviors, ranging from cute and funny to destructive.
What we did see from the people in the autism shirts:
1. parents actively working with their kids ("Let's set our watch for 5 minutes and then it will be time to leave the penguins." 5 minutes "time to leave the penguins mama"
2. parents disciplining their kids ("you stomp one more time, and the toy goes back" stomp..toy went back)
3. families waiting in line (and not complaining about wait times. although, to be fair, the longest we waited for anything was 15 minutes, and that was for the Penguin ride this morning)
What we didn't see from the people in the autism shirts:
1. Parents yelling at employees for not allowing their kid on the ride or not giving the kid toys or for telling the kid "Shamu doesn't have a show today!"
2. Parents pushing their kids in front of other kids during shows and events and saying "my kid has autism and this is the only place that magic for him"
3. Parents stomping their feet because their kid didn't get what the other kid got. (it's the 50th anniversary, and they are doing things similar to what Disney did---we saw a kid win a bubble gun doing trivia, a man making sea otter noises to win a stuffed animal and a lady win a VIP tour simply for being in the right seat at a show)
After all our times at Disney, I truly expected worse from the parents, and found myself pleasantly surprised. Did we see some "negative" behaviors from those kids in the group shirts? Yes, but we also saw "negative" behaviors from kids not in those shirts as well.
