Unfortunate
The show focuses heavily on negative traits and does not show an accurate representation of talents and gifts people on the spectrum have. I found myself agitated watching this because the characters are one dimensional and not very likable, which is not how autistic people should be represented.
Many, the aid makes choices that don't make sense and it come off as corny. Why is she the focus so much? She is also very patronizing and treats them like children. Autistic people are not stupid and they are likable people. The forward things they say are not always rude. Sometimes it's a hilarious truth we are all thinking, and can't help but laugh when it's finally said. Other times it's very kind things... I wish the writers had a clue and could show these complex's that are not all negative- just different.
