What troubles Ron the most about his son’s Autism?

Ron, 39, has expressed his deepest fear and concern about his son’s life. He said that it has been a concern of his for a long time.

Funches said in an interview that he has always tried to save his son from police altercations. A full-time nanny is always available for Malcolm. But Ron fears he might get into some trouble because people don’t understand his disability.

Malcolm doesn’t respond to directions as quickly or express his views as many people would. He is extremely independent though.

Malcolm who happens to be of mixed heritage is very much protected and loved by his father. The latter says he makes sure his son is aware of his racial identity and racial injustices.

Why is it necessary to accept Autism?

Malcolm is not the only one who has Autism. Thousands like him have such complications. Over the years, the concept of autism has changed drastically.

However, Autism is not something that should be understood but rather be accepted. People have to be more accepting towards the ones dealing with it because they need it a great deal.

Autism is something that we hear every day. With more knowledge and awareness, it can be easily dealt with. We need to make sure to treat those suffering with the equal love and respect that we give to everyone.
