GoTalk 20+: I want Goldfish.

Portia: Sorry, Raymond. We're all out of goldfish.

[Raymond screams]

Portia: We don't scream.

[Raymond screams and hits his head]

Portia: You don't hit yourself!

[Portia grabs Raymond's arm but he hits her in the face]

Portia: YOU DO NOT HIT ME!

[Raymond screams and cries]

Elias: Mom, I don't like him!

Portia: I know sweetie! Stay away from him!

[Skyler comes to Raymond]

Skyler: Raymond, you have to stop hurting yourself.

[Raymond bites Skyler]

Skyler: OW!

[Raymond starts banging his head on the dinner table]

Portia: Raymond Hudson Archibald! Stop or else your tooth is gonna fall out and your nose is going to bleed!

[Raymond shrieks as his nose bleeds and he flaps his hands]

Skyler: Raymond! Oh my god! Let me go get a tissue.

[Raymond bangs his head and screams some more]

[His tooth falls out]

Skyler: Mom! His tooth fell out!

[Ava whimpers and cries]

Portia: What's wrong Ava?

[Ava uses her Dynavox Compass to press the "Mom." button]

Dynavox Compass: Mom.

[Ava uses her Dynavox Compass to press the "I'm scared." button]

Dynavox Compass: I'm scared.

[Ava uses her Dynavox Compass to press the "I don't like." button]

Dynavox Compass: I don't like.

[Ava uses her Dynavox Compass to press the "Raymond." button]

Dynavox Compass: Raymond.

[Ava uses her Dynavox Compass to press the "He's scary." button]

Dynavox Compass: He's scary.

[Ava presses the play button]

Dynavox Compass: Mom. I'm scared. I don't like Raymond. He's scary.

Portia: I know you don't like Raymond and you think he's scary because he throws meltdowns like these, but do his aggressions scare you?

[Ava uses her Dynavox Compass to press the "Yes." button]

Dynavox Compass: Yes.

[Portia finds Raymond with a bloody nose, a loose tooth and a tiny scar, a couple of bruises and a few bumps on his forehead]

Skyler: OH MY GOD MOM! WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?

Portia: It's a bloody nose, a loose tooth, a scar, some bruises and a few bumps on his forehead.

Skyler: I can't believe this! This isn't who my brother is! Who is he and what have he done to MY OWN BROTHER?

[Skyler's tears fall down to her cheek]

Portia: Honey, calm down. What are you crying about?

Skyler: This is not who Raymond acting like! He is supposed to be happy!

[Skyler runs off crying]

Portia: Skyler! Please.

[Portia goes inside Skyler's room to find her crying]

Skyler: My brother isn't who he is to be...

Portia: Why?

Skyler: BECAUSE HIS AGGRESSIONS STARTED IN THE FIRST PLACE, WHICH CAUSES HIM TO HAVE A BLOODY NOSE, A LOOSE TOOTH, TWO BRUISES AND A FEW BUMPS ON HIS FOREHEAD!

[Skyler cries]

Portia: Honey, the bloody nose, loose tooth, bruises and bumps on his forehead were his fault for his self injurious behaviors. He hits his own head, bangs his head on everything, screams, shouts, cries a lot, sucks on his arm, bites himself and even throws stuff when he doesn't get his own way. He's nonverbal. He has severe autism and fragile X syndrome. I know you don't like him because of his behavior, but you should feel bad for him.
