A humorous anecdote in the life of an autistic kid:
At the rehab center where he has his occupational therapy, the administration has apparently decided to put cameras throughout the building. Maybe because they want to safeguard against sexual harassment suits or something, with those physical therapists touching people all over and whatnot... but at any rate, all the occupational therapists were letting us know that there's a slight chance we'll be getting a call at some point from some uninformed administrator reviewing the tapes, and could we please tell them that yes, our child normally screams in horror when people come near him, and when the therapist picks him up and flings him into a pile of beanbags, it's not torture, it's therapeutic.
