This is just so appalling! I really can't say though that it surprises me much! We constantly have people saying rude things to us or giving my son dirty looks when we are out shopping and such with the whole family. My Hubby even one time had a middle aged woman come up to him and in a stern voice she asked him why he was taking our retarded child out in public. He should be kept at home out of everyone's sight. My hubby very unpolitely told her what she could do with her opinion! Better him than me....I was wanting to just deck her and be done with it!

Ontario police are aware of a disgusting letter sent to a woman caring for an autistic child by another woman who wanted the "wild animal kid" out of her neighbourhood, even if it meant killing the child.
The hateful letter was reportedly sent last week to a resident of Newcastle, Ont., just east of Toronto, who hosts her 13-year-old grandson, Max, during summer days.
Mother Karley Begley spoke with CityNews and broke down in tears as she tried to read the letter.
The letter was re-posted on Twitter by Lennon and Maisy, a young Ontario singing duo who also star on ABC's Nashville.
The post has been retweeted more than 3,000 times.
Durham Regional Police told Yahoo! Canada News that a report was filed on Friday and an investigation is ongoing.
"We are certainly taking it seriously," spokesperson Jodi MacLean said on Monday.
"We are consulting with the Crown to see if there is any criminality that went on with the letter."

A disturbing letter targeting a teen with autism has shaken the boy’s family and rallied the local community to their defense.
The anonymous note was sent to 13-year-old Max’s grandmother’s house in Newcastle, Ontario, on Friday. Signed, “One pissed off mother,” the letter refers to Max as a neighborhood “nuisance,” “retarded” and a “dreadful” noise polluter. A photo of the letter was tweeted over the weekend by YouTube stars Lennon and Maisy, who identify themselves as family friends.
“Personally, they should take whatever non retarded [sic] body parts he possesses and donate it to science. What the hell else good is he to anyone!!!” the letter reads. “Do the right thing and move or euthanize him!! Either way we are ALL better off!!!”
