School holiday

We decided to take the kids to the park because it was going to be awesome outside.  We didn't want them to be stuck inside on their day off.  Apparently everyone else had the same idea.  It was pretty busy, but the kids had fun running around.
There was a little boy about 7 running around bullying some of the other kids on the playground.  I think he made 5-6 kids cry by kicking or hitting them.  Come to find out he was with a neighbor, but was autistic.  Obviously, that's not something I personally have to deal with on a daily basis.  It was hard to watch him be mean to the kids especially one of mine, but it must be hard to have to always keep him away from others because it's hard for him to play well with other kids.  We found the lady he was there with and just asked her to keep a closer eye on him since he was having issues with playing nicely.  It was a hard situation, my first in person bullying situation at that. I hope my kids do not ever treat other kids that way.
