Mother Of Autistic Child Judged By Other Parents For Putting A Lock On Her Kid's Room To Protect It From Their Kids

by Senad

It's a well-known fact that parenting is one of the hardest things out there because kids are wild by nature and dealing with them can be a nightmare sometimes, but we still love them.

It takes a lot of patience to deal with a kid but it's all a part of parenting and even dealing with other kids is a part of parenting because your kid has to have some contact with other kids.

You can teach your kid to behave perfectly and respect everything you bought for it, but that doesn't mean that when other kids come over for a playdate they're going to behave as your kid does.

That's just one of the many things that parents have to deal with, and you can only imagine how much harder it is for this mother who shared her story about other kids going into her autistic son's bedroom and making a huge mess every time.

In her story that she shared on Reddit, she explains that she has a 4-year-old son with autism who's into collecting things, especially toys which he keeps organized and put away nicely in his room. The problems arise when OP's best friend or sister comes over with their kids who take a straight line into her son's room and make a huge mess, even destroying the son's toys by ripping arms out of his action figures, and tires from his monster trucks.

There are plenty of toys in the living room for the kids to play with when they visit but for some reason, they just prefer the toys in the son's room.

Her son would always be upset after what they did to his room so his mother got tired of it and put a lock on her son's room to keep the other kids out.

Her best friend and sister saw this as insulting to them so they don't want to come over with their kids anymore, but the mother couldn't care less since it was hurting her child.

She felt like she might have done the wrong thing so she turned to Reddit for advice so make sure you scroll down and see what the people had to say about this.

I can't be the only one who feels bad for this poor kid getting his toys thrown around and destroyed by these kids. It's important to teach your kids to respect other people's belongings.

The people of Reddit stood on OP's side and we want to know if you agree with them.
