The parent's definitely didn't handle this the best way, but I try to reserve judgement on parents until I hear both sides of the story. A lot of parents of children with severe autism are in way over their heads. I've worked with guys who literally hit themselves in the head until they went blind, bit chunks of flesh out of someone else or broke someone's hands. I remember one guy who had to have 2 state troopers bring him back to the facility everytime he went home because he'd beat up his parents so badly. These are very very extreme cases, but just saying sometimes parents don't want to send there kid away but are utterly unequipped to handle them.
