This week, Christine had taken the twins to a soft play centre - which she says is often a challenging environment for them. Despite their sensitivity to loud noises, they were having a brilliant time playing. Christine was having a great day too until she heard the insensitive comments of another mum at the soft play centre, who was complaining about the twins' behaviour.

Christine, who describes herself on her profile as an autism advocate, took to Instagram to hit back at the insensitive stranger and raise awareness of autism.
