As the parent of a high functioning autistic 15yro son, I'm at a loss for how Chris Chan was raised. 😯 it definitely comes down to parenting and explaining things in a way the kid understands. It's hard but as said earlier, the parents just avoided this. I took classes for over a year to learn ways to communicate, explain and teach decision making skills to prepare my son for adulthood. 😔 sad.

[@DieAlteistwiederda]

My nephew is now 19 and lives a perfectly normal life and he has ASD and ADHD too. We all tried our damned best to understand what his issues are and how we could help and of course we also got him help so he could learn how to live with his issues. Years and years worth of help of different kinds and it wasn't hard but damn was it worth it. Looking at someone like Chris-chan makes me not just angry but also sad. Someone failed that person for them to become the way they are now.

[@kaos1109]

It's people like you making the world a better place a bit at a time. I think that there's a possibility that Chris' parents couldn't comprehend that they needed to be up to the task of raising a child with these type of learning needs, they were either ignorant of it or actively avoidant of it because of any reason. It was clearly and repeatedly pointed our during the podcast that parent had to take a more active role for Chris. I can only hope that parents of children with needs like these get correctly educated in order to facilitate integration into society.

[@RedPirateMercenaries]

He wasn’t raised, he was left to his own devices

[@whoknowswhocares885]

Well, you already covered more ground on being a better parent then Chris Chan's. Their idea of taking care of Autism was to just ignore it.

[@ecupcakes2735]

i feel the same exact way. my have a adult brother with high functioning autism. it has been a loooong and hard road to get him to be semi independent and he still needs help with a lot of things. espiecially with people who are trying to take advantage of him. people with high functioning autism are VERY susceptible to scams because they dont find it easy to differentiate people who lie versus people who have their best interests. whatever chris chan's parents were doing was likely, lack of resource, lack of diagnosis, lack of support. just simply, they were not equipped to deal with chris chan's issues and that ate their family alive....the internet bullying just made everything worse. it's not chris chans fault. if anything i blame the parents the most for allowing things to get this bad without even attempting to intervene. i feel sorry for their entire family to be honest. it's hard enough to have a diagnosis that your child will never become grow up to be normal...let alone the things that chris chan has gone through, the abuse that happens within his family, the abuse that chris chan does to himself & to others. it's tough to see him unravel knowing that could have easily happened to my brother if we were not careful or had the right help. Chris could be thriving given the right chance and circumstance. For the people who went through abusing chris chan online....i hope you don't ever feel proud that you were abusing someone with a learning disability. Leave him alone & let the government deal with the issue. I think he's been through enough.

The thing is it's a LOT more than just autism. Chris has a whole slew of disorders, intellectual disabilities, and mental illnesses all of which were greatly amplified by the constant torture Chris was put through to the point where Chris isn't even living in reality anymore (not to mention how hyper susceptible Chris is to the influence of others). Obviously Chris has done a lot of appalling things, but there's no doubt in my mind Chris would have not ended up that way if Chris had a stable upbringing and had not been put through such hell online. I've never seen a better example of how horribly the internet can twist people both Chris and Chris' abusers; and I can't even fathom how pathetic the people who participated in Chris' torturing had to have been to go to such a level to feel better about their own miserable lives.

I'm surprised at how easily people are manipulated into justifying the level of abuse, at times on a criminal level, because he is reacting to a well-organized - albeit ignorant - group of people who only wished him harm. Because his parents had no idea how to help him; because people genuinely believed that 'telling him something' was enough of a learning platform; because he had little to no comprehension on how to communicate: because of all these things (likely more) - the abuse and continued attacks are justified based on (as Geno himself stated)"He could have stopped this at anytime." I really question this thinking. We're watching someone with some level of autism trying to fit into a world that, for the most part, just wants to do him harm for their own amusement.

@@bilinasmini3480 Eh, Chris ain't even that bad. Words of a psychiatrist (blogger; blog name is "slatestarcodex", post title: "Against Against Autism Cures") On the one hand, about half my friends, my girlfriend, and my ex-girlfriend all identify as autistic. For that matter, people keep trying to tell me I’m autistic. When people say “autistic” in cases like this, they mean “introverted, likes math and trains, some unusual sensory sensitivities, and makes cute hand movements when they get excited.” On the other hand, I work as a psychiatrist and some of my patients are autistic. Many of these patients are nonverbal. Many of them are violent. Many of them scream all the time. Some of them seem to live their entire lives as one big effort to kill or maim themselves which is constantly being thwarted by their caretakers and doctors. I particularly remember one patient who was so desperate to scratch her own face - not in a ‘scratch an itch’ way, but in a ‘I hate myself and want to die’ way - that she had to be kept constantly restrained, and each attempt to take her out of restraints for something as basic as going to the bathroom ended with her attacking the nurse involved. This was one of the worse patients, but by no means unique. The popular literature about autism tends to fall into the genre of “Doctors hate her! Area mom cured her child’s autism with This One Weird Trick!” Common One-Weird-Tricks include gluten-free diets, casein-free diets, massive multivitamin doses, and whatever else the cutting edge of quackery can dream up. The autism rights people are rightly suspicious of this entire category. But I worry they have their own One-Weird-Trick: treating autistic people decently. You should treat autistic people decently because it’s the right thing to do. But it is not One-Weird-Trick. Avoiding abusive treatment will prevent things from being worse than they have to be, but that’s all. It will not turn severely disabled people into independent, happy-go-lucky angels.

After watching the entire documentary many, many times, I am completely convinced that even without the trolls Chris was destined to be a bad person. There are so many examples of him doing completely inexcusable things without the involvement of any trolls, i.e his harassment of Megan, him wishing death upon Adam Stackhouse, him saying he should sexually assault his church councilor, him running over Michael Snyder, etc. The trolls are without a doubt responsible for his completely fucked view of reality, but that doesn't change the fact that Chris has always been a bad person.

Holy shit thats fucked up. I guess its time to watch the series

[@alucard303]

Ah yes. We mentally ill people are just born and destined to be "Bad people". Because that's how human psychology and child development works. Nah, fu. They haven't "always been a bad person.", it would be news to me that babies are born racist and misogynistic. You talk about trolls, somehow missing the complete failure his parents were from birth, the abuse and negligence from them and the rest of society. And how much more these things influence Neurodivergent people in contrast to typical ones. Pretty much all of this could have been prevented if he got the proper care for a neurodivergent kid/person. But luckily, hardly anybody in society cares, because we're just bad people and should magically "act normal". And instead of therapy, we get beaten. I'm not saying that they're not a bad person doing inexcusable things. Just that it wasn't their decision to become one. They could have led a decent live, like many of us do.

[@madeliefynana]

I guess I do understand what you're trying to say, but I can't help but think there could have been someway to avoid or at least minimize this whole debacle. Chris has a lot of mental disorders. (and in the past time mental illness wasn't as treated as good as now, well... currently mental illness still a have some stigmas and is still treated somewhat poorly, but I think you get where I'm getting at) For some people it's really hard to know right from wrong and know when you have crossed over the line, but if there might have been someone who could watch Chris, regulate his behavior and know how to deal with it/them, then most of this probably wouldn't have happened as it did. Even though Chris did things that are inexcusable, they are still just a person with mental disorders, you can't quite fairly compare that with your average healthy human. But they certainly didn't deserved to be the laughingstock for the whole internet and world to see and/or be bullied/harassed over things they had no control over even before his birth. Chris very cognitively underdeveloped. I also have a mental illness, albeit not as extreme in Chris and also pretty much incomparable. Knowing what I know; working on your mental disorder gets harder the older you get, because it's difficult to kill off habits and thought processes that you grew up with. If there was someone who could have interfered when Chris was still young and developing stage, things might have not gone this downhill. Sadly the damage has already been done and it does seem like it has gone so far that they can't go back anymore. Well, that's just my two cents.

[@matthewmichalski7333]

I've always seen Chris's story as having three morals. 1. How not to raise an autistic child (I'm on the spectrum my self), I feel like most of there behaviors can be traced back to there parents never addressing there autism and reinforcing her negative behaviors. Although that still isn't an excuse for some of there actions. 2. How not to behave on the internet. Chris not only willingly gave out massive amounts of personal information, but they also fell for the same trick multiple times. 3. Some people are just shit human beings. I personally believe that even if chris was never trolled , because of the way they were raised, there autism (although autism is not an excuse for even a fraction of the things they've done), and just a complete lack of common sense and an unwillingness to change, chris would still have become a honorable person. This is how I've always viewed chris chan. Feel free to disagree with me, I'm curious what others think about this.

[@VForceWave]

Hi, I don't mean to be a grammar nazi, but I noticed that the five uses of the word "there" in your comment were incorrect, and should actually be instead "their". You see, "there" is used to describe locations, while "their" is used to describe a person or their possessions/qualities. Lastly, "they're" is a conjunction of "they are", a way of describing the state of someone. In addition, you described Chris as an "honorable" person. I believe you meant "horrible". A simple typo, however, it makes the message of your comment drastically different. Anyways, I pretty much agree with the morals you have described here. I think there are more morals to be found, especially in parenting, making friendships and relationships, handling criticism, self-introspection and being critical of oneself, and many more. I would like it mention, as to Chris falling for the same trick multiple times, that Chris has the problem of trusting women implicitly. In his mind, women cannot do wrong and are incapable of lying. Every time he's fallen for someone's trick, it's because he believes he's talking to a woman and they either wouldn't harm him or because he's unwilling to believe a "prospective partner" could harm him. Even recently, he was STILL talking to the girl responsible for recording his confession about r*ping his mother, just because she claimed someone hacked her computer and stole the recording. He doesn't think about how unlikely that is, or why she was recording it in the first place, or how many times similar scenarios have happened in the past. He just wants to trust the woman.

[@HellishPumpkin]

@@VForceWave to be fair, being grammatically incorrect can change the context of a sentence. There’s really nothing wrong with correcting someone.

[@Amazingpatt]

it the story of most "character", bad parenting ... (maybe the term bad is wrong but only one i can think of)

[@RukoHanaji]

To be honest, I think parenting was the root problem, because whether we like it or not our family relationships do affect us and how we behave. That being said, the trolling groups did not help. But I wonder if Chris had had a different upbringing, would they have been as easily found and/or would they have put all of their information out there online?

[@spacialboy3883]

i agree completely. things have gotten much worse bc of the way they were raised and the trolls, but still, some of the things chris did are just purely evil. racial slurs, running over a man and r*ping his mother dont happen bc of autism. chris just didnt mind hurting ppl. i think she was a bad person to begin with, and she was also in unfortunate circumstances which amplified it.
