************** towards disabilty of a minor. Falsely accused.

Good day

My name is Michelle and was taken with my 6year old non verbal Autistic little boy Monday to the police station. And a charged for shoplifting for a bar of soap R14. 50 that i did not see that was behind my child in the trolley Please understand that Autism is difficult. Its a disabilty.

Im furious Im so angry this has effected me and my child.

The manager wasn't even there just 3security men. No woman and no concern for for my child that had to witness this. He does not understand and effects him.

I was treated very unfairly. I tried to reason i begged and pleaded. My son only has me no one to care fOR him!!! Why would i put him in harms way.. the manager Theo mocked me... When i was pleading the manager actually threatening physically throw me out OF the vehicle. I did not ***** anything. Its absurd.

I have a small home business and recently added picknpay to my customers which i was very proud of. Why would i mess. That up. I try so hard. My life is already difficult raising an autistic child.

Your staff. Management and security have absolutely no idea or even understand autism. Everytime i go to pick n pay the staff glare /stare . Gossip. Laugh and have something to say about my child.

Only reason why i go to pick n pay is cause my child can say Pick n pay now.. Just recently. I buy him the R5 ice cream and it's 2 blocks from. He gets very excited and sits and waits to walk to pick n pay.

THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE IN ALL AREAS. AUTISM SOUTH Africa and i are very unhappy with this matter. AND NOT FAIR TO ME AND MY POOR Child. Now my name is bad. I have so much stress. Th
