Mum distraught as autistic son banned from uncle's wedding - but other kids get invites

A mum is fuming at her brother after he told her that one of her three children won't be allowed to come to his wedding because he has autism.

The woman explained that she has been given the role of bridesmaid at her brother's upcoming wedding, and her two other teenage children are also part of the bridal party alongside her. However, her youngest son has not been given a role in the wedding, and she's now been told that the boy won't even be allowed to see his uncle tie the knot.

The mum said she's "really hurt" by her brother's decision, and has hit out at him for telling her that he was excluding her son because it was "best for him" - despite never consulting the boy's parents over how best to involve him.
