I remember in 5th grade there was a girl who was a lot different and people made fun of her and stuff, but she was actually pretty nice. She invited everyone in our class of like 25 or so. 2 other people in our class went, one who was a big troublemaker but actually chill, and the other who was really nice to her and always partnered with her. There were a lot of people in our class who threw them away, and some that just couldn’t make it, but I couldn’t cause I had football, but I still went after. Our teacher talked to us as a class when she wasn’t there and she even cried. Felt so bad for her.
A couple years, this boy invited my son to his birthday party, which was on a Saturday. Well, Friday, my kid broke his arm and we couldn't get in to see the ortho until Monday, so he was basically on in a sling and on bed rest all weekend as to not further aggravate the injury. I texted this kids mom Friday night and let her know my son couldn't come to the party, and she dropped that this boy only invited my son-- the birthday boy is autistic, and even though he's a really great kid (I even like hanging out with him!) I guess most of the classmates treat him like crap. So, we ended up changing the plans that this boy could come over to my house, we rented a few movies, got pizza delivered, etc. So, this kid's birthday party ended up being the two of them hanging out on my couch playing minecraft and watching TV.

Edit: My first post got taken down due to the mans twitter handle being posted. Still think it deserves to be on here!
