Why do autistic adults get yelled at but not autistic children?

If an adult on the autism spectrum does something stupid and very unforgivable, would you yell at them?
I mean they should get called out like everyone else. I know most autistic people are sensitive and don’t like yelling but would you yell at them anyways. Autistic adults are like any other adults so you should cuss them out when they’re wrong. Doesn’t matter about their feelings.

Autism isn't something that is immediately visibly known, unlike other things like Down Syndrome. Most people will usually assume you're a neuro-typical and do such things. Either way, we're all subjected to the same shit, autism or not.

@EllieNichols I know that feeling all too well. Some people, even some friends, question it, but I see all my different signs.
@ElizabethBabe1994 More and more people are becoming aware of it, but not everyone understands.
@SW-User That’s another thing people bring up is that I have friends and maintain friendships quite well neuro-typicals should really look into the whole spectrum not just pieces of it

@EllieNichols Indeed.

I almost never yell at other adults. What's the point. We're adults. Talk to each other. I can call out someone for being stupid without making them feel bad.

@RosaMarie No shit.
I’m an autistic adult and I’ve never been yelled at for doing something wrong

@EllieNichols I have when I was little
@ElizabethBabe1994 When I was younger yes I had been yelled at in the typical you’re a child doing something wrong fashion but never as an adult for doing something wrong

Because they’re slow and they need to get out of their autistic traits!
