Hijacking the top comment (sorry) to try and dispel the enormous amount of confusion about autism in this thread. I never realized how little people knew of the disorder, but as a brother to someone with moderate Autism and severe Williams Syndrome, a seven year volunteer at a summer camp for Autistic kids, and a respite care worker for the disabled, I feel like there's a few things I need to address. First off, the way they are speaking to Trevor is not degrading or looking down on him. There are many different ways Autism has impacted people, but for a lot of moderately to severely Autistic people on the spectrum can be generalized as adults that will never grow up. They are speaking to Trevor more like a child because 1.) They are trying to raise the excitement that "Santa" came to visit him and 2.) Because he probably responds positively to it. Many Autistic people don't pick up on social situations, so sometimes you have exaggerate your speech and mannerisms to relate to them. Second, a lot of people seem to think that he doesn't care that Santa is visiting him, and is more excited about the presents. Anyone who has spent time with someone Autistic knows that they have a hard time showing excitement and can collapse within theirselves in high tension social situations. I can't speak for Trevor, but if it were my brother (who is a year older, but has a childlike love of Christmas and still believes in Santa) he would react the exact same way. He would seem unenthusiastic, and we would have to get his attention to point out that Santa was there. However, that would be all he talked about for weeks. He would never, ever forget something like that. We've done surprises similar to this before, and while he didn't seem like he cared so much at the time, he would ask about it and talk about it all the time. "Santa will come back next year?" "Santa came to visit." "Santa comes in the winter time." etc. It makes a lasting positive effect, even though it doesn't seem like it at the time. A lot of of people seem to think its pointless to allow Trevor to believe in Santa even though he's an adult. It makes sense, because we stopped a long time ago. But again, most Autistic people are kids who will never grow up. My family's goal with my brother is to help him succeed and become as independent as possible. We want for him to have a job, house, and yes, be mature enough to no longer believe in Santa. But we're realistic as well. We know that he will probably always have to live with a family member, and be taken care of. I don't tell him Santa isn't real because it's not hurting anyone for him to believe. It makes him genuinely happy, the same way the church environment does. I'm an atheist who no longer believes in Santa, but my brother knows none of this. When I go to the volunteer camp, I speak nothing of Santa or Jesus not being real. Because it makes them happy. And I know it's hard to explain, and I'm not doing it much justice, but the burden of truth is for people who understand enough to no longer be innocent. These people are innocent, and blissful just like children. Anyway, I hope this helps. I know it may seem uncomfortable, but remember that people on the Autism spectrum or social morons. They don't react to situations the same way we do. So even though it may seem tense and uncomfortable, this really is a joyous video. I promise you that Trevor enjoyed this visit, and that the people of this video are showing him genuine kindness and not just exploiting him.
