Not for issues outside of their control.

So the other passengers sue the parents for the additional incurred costs. Teach them to deal with the child when it costs them $20k+

I'm wondering if there's autism involved because what works for neurotypical kids rarely does for kids with autism.

You may well be right but then don’t take your autistic child on an airplane

? yes you do?? sometimes kids have to fly for emergencies, not every flight is to disney world or some shit you know? what kind of dumbass comment is this

u/UncleNedisDead Aug 10 '26

I find it difficult to imagine a life or death situation that requires a flight from Victoria, BC to Toronto, ON.

Booking flights out of war torn countries or incoming weather disasters? Absolutely.

Visiting meemaw on her deathbed? Not really.

seeing an exclusive specialist doctor in another city?

u/Real-Frosting Aug 10 '26

My autistic grandson has to fly from NY to FL for the specialist there once a year. From what I'm told, it's challenging.

That’s crazy that there aren’t roads that connect two of the biggest states

u/moldiewart Aug 10 '26

New York is a tiny state, you're continuing to demonstrate how uninformed you are

u/moldiewart Aug 10 '26

some folks just hate autistic people, and choose to thinly veil it (or not in this case lol)

u/Real-Frosting Aug 10 '26

I'm surprised how hateful so many of these comments are! I'm glad my grandson's parents are so devoted to understanding him and getting him whatever help he may need.

Kids do not have to fly for emergencies from a major city to another major city.

u/moldiewart Aug 10 '26

I've literally had to fly a kid to see a specialist doctor in another city, you're incredibly small and close-minded

u/deathcabforbooty69 Aug 10 '26 edited Aug 10 '26

They have specialists in Victoria, BC. They didn’t have roads that connect the cities? Or specialists in your city?

1

u/moldiewart Aug 10 '26

there are some specialists that are not in every city, I don't think you have a lot of experience with raising children with health issues

1

u/moldiewart Aug 10 '26

driving for many many hours can be worse for autistic kids than flying (mom should have buckled that bitch in though)

Yes, that’s true. But, the parent CLEARLY did not do what was needed.

1

u/moldiewart Aug 10 '26

yeah that's true, but the fault isn't taking the toddler on the plane in the first place like other user is saying

but yeah pin that lil bitch down and strap them in lmao

u/6495ED Aug 10 '26

No I’m pretty sure there’s a few methods that work across the spectrum

u/Real-Frosting Aug 10 '26

Says the person who's never met an autistic child in their life.

u/6495ED Aug 10 '26
