alright... let me put this lightly...
I am not allowed to make decisions for myself.
The teachers choose my dinner for me, tell everyone that i am autistic, and so all the kids say im a 'spazz' or a 'retard'
Ask me if i help EVERY TIME i do work, and they dont let me be independent at all.
Every morning im faced with
'HELLO KRISTIAN!' in a voice that says 'you dont understand anything'
and whenever something goes wrong, I am blamed because im autistic and i probally did it!
I AM NOT AN IDIOT GOD DAMN IT!
i get higher levels/grades then everyone in my class (im in the high class) and they say i need to go to the lower class.
They are making my life hell! please help me! |

That's ridiculous - nobody should be allowed to be treated like that.
Have you told your parents? Perhaps if you collect some evidence, you could take them to court.

If they tried that on me, I would seriously chew them out right then and there and tell them that I am perfectly capable of making decisions myself and that if they don't start acting like retards by treating me like one, they could expect a lawsuit. I wouldn't care if they suspended or expelled me, who would want to go to school like that?

I went through the same thing when I was in school. There was nothing I could do about it, but eventually, I got to switch to a different school where I was treated slightly better.
If you have nice, sympathetic parents, maybe they could help you out - demand better treatment or help you switch to a different school or do home schooling. |

| I that happned to me I would have definatly complained to the LEA and would have moved schools beacuse nobody deserves to be treated that way. Everybody has the right to be independent and should be allowed to be treated the same. Also, the school should have asked for your permission before telling everbody the your were autistic, my school asked me and I said no because I know I would get bullied because of my AS. |

Sometimes not the smartest and rational action to take.

Do you go to some type of boarding school or something?
PS: That kinda sucks that they're not letting you make decisions from yourself. Have you ever tried talking to a teacher, principal, or your parents about you feel about that?

That's STUPID what are these schools coming too?
I would opt for a public school but I don't know exactly what country you live in I'm guessing UK. I don't how it works there but that sounds very bad. As you get older, you need to learn to decide things for yourself instead of relying them on other people. Something I wish our school taught us.

My advice would be to have your parents or a neurotypical relative who understands your point of view explain the situation to them. They have begun to define you purely based on your diagnosis of autism, so nothing you say to them will have any real impact. They need to start viewing you as a human being, and the easiest way to do that is have someone they view as fully human to do it.

| What school do you go to? Because I go to a public school and they'd never treat me like that. |

If I were you, I'd be using extreme violence.
But violence doesn't solve anything.
Talk to your parents or an NT who will help you.

Do you have a teacher that you trust and that you know is nice?
Maybe you could write down what is annoying you and what you do not want teachers to do, give the letter to said teacher and later discuss it with him. The teacher may help and inform the others then.
Or maybe have your parents or something else talk to them about what you think of the situation at school.
