Do you think what Christina did was correct? #film #movie #fypシ #movie #drama

No... this is a learned behavior because people made excuses for it because of his condition when in fact it has nothing to do with that condition

I hated the mother in the show. She was the worst person in the world. You do not bend to their will they have to learn like everybody else if she would’ve blasted her and my brother.

That's BS, I have 4 autistic cousins, the oldest one is 29, when he was younger and misbehaved, his mum and dad would say "oh but he's autistic " NO he was a brat, he knew right from wrong and would laugh behind people's backs while me who is 13 years older or my younger siblings would get told off and told to ignore it. He was never made to do chores or help. Now he's lazy and can be quite selfish because he was never forced to face consequences or given responsibilities.

Many kids where done a massive disservice with early autism diagnosis and it continues to happen today.

No. No means no THE FIRST TIME! KIDS NEED TO KNOW THEY CAN BE TOLD NO.

After all the clips of Max I've seen, I'm realizing that his parents used his aspergers diagnosis as an excuse for him to become an asshole.

Boundaries, he needs to understand that if it's not his turn, it's not his turn, and he can't just push and shove and get his way. He would need to find something else to do in the meantime, and he would need to understand that his routine doesn't always consistent, it can be interrupted.

Soecial needs no boundaries

This is just plain entitlement. The parents are just feeding into it instead of addressing it they are enabling him when they are gone no one in the family is going to take him in and he will be institutionalized.

If the parents don't teach them the world will. He's no one else's special boy eventually he will be a grown man who can't be told no and thinks everything revovles around him. Violence is what will follow since empathy patience kindness gratitude self control hadn't been taught

I know right

Christina is a bad lazy mom

I know Max has Autism but he was still a brat

This whole show must be a huge rage bait.

I can totally get it. My son is autistic and no verbal and he learned from a very young age to get advantage and to be justify all the time and when i discipline him (like tell him no or encorage him to do things by himself), i'm the bad person

What's the name of the movie?

It’s bothered me so much how much these parents expected others to bend over backwards for a kid who was never taught to be grateful or kind to other people.

There are other kids with Asperger’s who can & have learned how to respect others, so using that as an excuse is bullshit.

I felt so sorry for the daughter, Hattie. It was like she only existed to take care of her brother :(

Imagine using all of the family funds for your business & never treating both kids with equality, to then be surprised when your eldest daughter wants to GTFO 🤦‍♀️

Idk how this show had 6 seasons 😂

"your being completely selfish" says the kid who barged in, shoved her out of the way, and used the printer after being told no several times. She literally said they have a deadline. He doesn't need catered to. He needs to be taught the world isn't going to hand him things. But his mom would rather cater to him bc he has special needs. Having autism doesn't give you a reward card to be mean and disrespectful

Max shouldn't go to Christine's shop full stop.

My 30 yr old daughter, 26 yo son (Autism) and I have recently started watching this show from the beginning (Parenthood). My daughter and I have been often quite emotional watching the first few seasons as Max acted out almost exactly like my son did when he was little. Back in the early 2000s, the therapy guidance was to adjust our way of behavior to accommodate for his. Accommodate, accommodate, accommodate. Interestingly as my son now watches this show and sees Max's behaviors, and is disgusted by it, we tell him he behaved similarly and I under guidance by therapists handled his behaviors similarly as Christine and Adam do. Now, I see how wrong it was, in fact, to do that. Now, with a 26 yo, I'm having to stand my ground with a "kid" who still thinks the world revolves around him. I recommend ASD kids and adults watch this show beginning to end. It is quite educational no matter what your opinion is.

She’s correct. A “kid” is a child 13-years old and under. A 14-year old is not a “kid.”

Please stop calling teenagers, youth, young adults, college students “kids.” The practice excuses youth from becoming responsible.
