Some Autistic parent: "How can I help my kid with Autism?"

My sarcasm that I know I can't say out loud: "just take them to the vet have have them put down"

I make some really dark jokes from time to time.

Vet: “Soo… what do you want me to do?”
Mother: “Just put him down.”
Vet: *Puts him on the floor.
Mother: “Thanks!”
Mother: *Leaves with her child.
