Mother of an autistic child gets a scathing letter from a neighbor about her 'brat child' scaring her 'normal children'

 An anonymous letter from a neighbor sent one fuming, emotional mother in Philadelphia's Mayfair section to Facebook.



Bonnie Moran went to social media not to just air out the hateful handwritten note she'd received, but to raise awareness about autism.



Moran is a mother of three and has a child with autism - her youngest son, Ryan.



The neighbor, apparently upset that they can't get fresh air without being disturbed by the little boy, wrote the scathing note that starts out calling him a brat and even goes so far as to use the "r" word.



"I was mad, angry, beyond angry," Moran said.



It reads, in part, "the screaming and carrying on needs to stop. No one wants to hear him act like a wild animal, it's utterly nerve-wracking, not to mention, it's scaring my normal children."



The neighbor, bothered by the child's behavior, goes on to suggest that Bonnie should "give him some old-fashioned discipline a few times and he will behave."



Moran says this is the first time someone has complained about Ryan who also has ADHD.



"He doesn't comprehend like you or me, he gets overwhelmed very easily," Moran said.
