		<description><![CDATA[In &#8220;Handcuffing revives autism reform calls,&#8221; Natalie Craig reported about a story that, it seems to me, we&#8217;ve heard sometime before now.

POLICE handcuffed a 10-year-old autistic boy at a Geelong primary school after a breakdown in which he threw a compass that speared a classmate&#8217;s leg.

Link to the full version of Ms. Craig&#8217;s story.
