Building in Circles: The Best of Autism Mom by Elizabeth W. Barnes, eBook 2014; an Extended Review with < My Thoughts > by Sara Luker
 
(39% indicates the eReader book location, instead of page reference numbers).
 
39%     As his Autistic behavior became more apparent in the structured setting of elementary school, he began recognizing his own “not fitting in” and feeling discomfort about it.

One of our saddest days was when he called himself “stupid” because he could not do his work in the classroom.

40%     Several weeks ago he came to me, unhappy, and said he was being bullied.
I asked him if he wanted me to talk to his teacher, and he said yes. I told him I was going to need some more information and asked him to tell me who it was bullying him. He said it was a lot of children.

41%     I was perplexed. His classroom is somewhat small, his teacher incredibly active and aware of what is going on at all times, and children are never in the classroom without an adult.

Then it dawned on me. My son was not being bullied, not in the commonly understood sense. He was seeing something new.

There were facial expressions, body language, and non-literal language that he recognized as other layers of communication that he could not follow. This made him feel uncomfortable and scared. He concluded that this was bullying.
