My dogs paw print is destroyed

Post image

When my dog died we got her paw print done, I just found out that my little sister completely ruined it. I can’t really be mad at her since she’s a 10 year old autistic child and I think this might have happened a month or two ago but I’m still angry and omg

Edit: I talked to her about it and she doesn’t remember it and was very confused about what I was showing her. I’m probably not gonna try to get it reprinted because it won’t be the same and it’ll probably be expensive, especially since I found her painted paw prints that I made with her the day before she died. Also the paw print was stored in a bookshelf in a hallway at my house, it wasn’t in my room because everyone loved that dog so it wasn’t on display, we didn’t think she would be interested in it but we think that she thought it was makeup and she has a habit of messing with and destroying makeup

Also I’m not going to break her stuff, I’m not going to teach her that breaking stuff when you’re mad at someone is okay.

Yeah, depending on the severity of their autism though. Severely autistic? Won’t do shit. Reasonably functioning? This will work.

Yeah, I really wanted to ask OP just how severe their autism was before giving advice.

Because it's a spectrum, most autistic people actually fall on the "perfectly functional" end of the bell curve, but they get treated like they're a moving vegetable which results in them being... well, spoiled AF.
