What would you do if Jason was your child? Smack him around?
I remember watching a documentary about parents with autistic kids, man do i feel bad for them.
It's not like they get use to it. The parents would consistently break down in tears over how their life turned out.
Their kept in a constant state of anxiety, chaos, and general WTF is happening feeling all due to their maternal instinct to protect and care for their offspring.
I have relatives with a kid who is not only mentally impaired, but has multiple physical problems as well.
The father is in complete disgust and dissatisfaction of his kid, and the mother is locked in to caring for a child that will always depend on her, and dealing with a husband that is completely repulsed by how his idea of starting a family turned out.
I'm still not 100% sure about this, but i lean towards the idea of euthanasia/eugenics/mercy killing of severely disabled children.
Jason would not be qualified, as he can still function and possibly be self reliant if properly mentored.
