MS labels Autistic child "Cheater" erases his gamerscore

Bottom line is that the kid cheated and the mom lied for him.

You can't treat this differently when the kid cheated. This would lend to anybody using that excuse to get their hacked points back.

Bottom line is that nobody likes to see somebody take advantage of things like this. MS did the right thing and are at no fault here.

Cheaters are cheaters no matter how you try to defend them

The mother should ask herself that, if she doesn't want her son to lie and cheat, she should set a better example. Sorry mgoblue, if my original post wasn't clear for what I was trying to say.

I totally agree...where this went wrong was the mom going to her local news channel and obviously they sensationalized this with the Autistic angle. Great news story for them! No clue why the mom even thought of going to the news for this, no way in hell my mom would ever do that type of thing.
