Getting through to a child with special needs especially to the extreme that Sammy is like reid did is amazing. It’s a once in a life time experience that is probably one of the best feelings in the world

@avrilslittlesis

Tldr: People with high support needs deserve a life with human connection, not just a "once in a lifetime experience". I agree that forging that connection, especially with a child still finding their voice and means of communication, is enxhilirating when you make a breakthrough. I just hope you realize that people like Sammy will have to "breakthrough" to most people they meet in their life and that is an exhausting experience. By romanticizing moments like these makes it easier to forget that people with high support needs are still people. Its harder for them to connect with a world that wasnt built for them. People often seem determined to misunderstand those who think and see the world differently. These moments are often "once in a lifetime" events bc people do not spend their lives with differently abled people. When you have to take the time to unlearn your standards of communication and learn what the high support person wants, feels, and needs and how they individually communicate, it is so much easier to think of them as a child and blame and isolate people like sammy bc of things they cant control. Reid connected with sammy bc he was open and honest and listened to sammy. He asked sammy if he understood and believed him. Reid told sammy when he didnt understand and didnt blame sammy for not communicating in a way he could understand. When you see people as people and genuinely connect with them, no matter their individual needs, you learn to stop dehumanizing them by realizing that treating them as obstacles and objects you fail to acknowledge that while it can be difficult to work with them for reasons beyond their control, they can be assholes entirely on purpose and you can still love them anyway.

He didn't just play "the simplest major scale". He played with one hand and the proper thumb-under crossover, which means the person has had lessons or taught himself -- so, it's a reasonable assumption that he plays the piano. In this case, Reid claims to not play, but somehow picked it up because it's mathematical. In reality, it's obvious the actor playing Reid has had at least a few years of piano lessons.

This is one of the reasons Reid is my favorite character

Reid actually bought a keyboard in the end of this episode

“I don’t play, but essentially it’s just math.” Funny, and true.

The scene is really sweet, though Reid can clearly play the piano a little, it usually takes a little bit of time building up the finger strength and control for clear notes like that. I'm just being pedantic though as a pianist. It is a beautiful way to get through to the child though

The little boy who played Sammy was amazing.

As someone who is autistic I feel like Reid is on the spectrum also I like to remind people it’s a spectrum everyone reacts differently to it I feel it helps him with his work along side his brain power he definitely has traits of autism in my opinion

Ok but why does this kid not have a communication ipad or something. Like clearly he understands how to answer questions, he just is non verbal.

Every time I hear the song it gives me flashbacks and I think in a way that's what's happening to Sammy. I think when he plays this song he sees what happened to his parents and in a way that's what he's trying to tell Reid. This conversation sounded a little better in my head so if this sounds stupid I'm sorry...

For some people, it is. ASD is so varied that there are definitely people who communicate this way. Now, getting a Spencer Reid who can “talk” back to you so quickly would be nearly impossible, which could be why it’s not seen very often, but as someone who’s autistic, I can say that this IS how at least an aspect of ASD works for some people on the spectrum.
