Good for him. Having a son w/Down syndrome, I can somewhat relate to the mother's anxiety in public. My son is very gregarious, sometimes overly gregarious and can overstep people's personal space. For ex., climbing up into a biker looking dude's lap and checking out his beard. But folks with kids with autism have a lot more to deal with than we do.
