I am eddiedog8's mum. He is an eight year old child with aspergers. He has found this forum really helpful and has been able to communicate with people who I thought would understand him more than some of his NT friends. He is an exceptionally intelligent child and has some very mature ideas and opinions. He has not seen all of the post but enough for it to upset him tonight.

Could I please ask for the post of the above title to be removed and for some compassion and understanding for a young child who has been helped a great deal by other posts on wrong planet. I only allow him to post on random discussion and on the Kids Crater and I regularly check his posts and give him advice if I think his posts appear to be incorrect or rude.

His spelling and grammar will improve in time but this level of criticsm and personal attack could damage his self esteem.

I would appreciate the level of tolerance that I see from most people on Wrong Planet for him.

Regards

Eddiedog8's mum.


Yay!! Eddiedog8 is saved! I was amazed when I saw that post trying to ban eddiedog8... I can't belive somebody was trying to get him banned for that!

eddiedog8 and Mum,

I had no idea you were eight, lots of people have reasons they do not type well, but what you said was mature and to the point.

I know ubbyubbyubby and aussieboy, but have never met you. If I had known, I would have jumped in.

Still the response was very quick, a lot of people came to your defense, and a mod soon put a stop to it.

We try, but do not know everything, and it takes time to act.

Mum, Lau the Mod is a friend of ubbyubbyubby and aussieboy, he fits in with the seven to nine set.

Mod contact information can be found in the wrongplanet.net discussion area below the Kids' Crater.

I have no way of knowing which are awake and on, perhaps we need a general Mod button for faster response.

eddiedog8 will be watched over now, we like him.

eddiedog8,

Wow! I had no idea you were 8, you're wise beyond your years.

I'm sorry that the posts in this forum offended you. I can understand. Most of the posts were in your defence because we welcome anyone here and all of us have issues of one sort or another.

I think that if the person who started the thread had realized your age, they would never have posted such a thing and if they haven't already apologized, I'm sure they will.

In the meantime, come back... you've got plenty of friends and supporters here.

Wow. I'm a good speller, but I don't really like picking on people for it. Unless it's a huge group and they're idiots.

Not like this forum: None of us are idiots 24/7, but hey: we're all stupid at one point or another.
