One incident where I felt sorry for Christopher is at the train station. With people moving each and every way and all th noise he is unable to concentrate. Then, he has trouble understanding the police officer and lady selling train tickets. That was when it really hit me how difficult it would be to live with autism. They all thought he was stupid when in reality he was far smarter then either of them, and he was still just a kid. It would be even more difficult as he grew older. Imagine being an adult with autism. His parents had tried to protect him when he was a kid, but they couldn't do so for ever. Something as small as going to the grocery store would be a challenge. Not having the ability to understand someone was asking you or trying to navigate while people were everywhere, he would end up confused and make a fool of himself when he is actually extremely bright and gifted.
