Isn't it strange that in this whole forum I am the only person with a family that truly enjoys being autistic (and that includes my neurotypical wife)? Even more weird is, we are happy, and you guys are not.



Pardon me?

Please don't speak for me, my happy autistic family, or others.

Umm...I second that. Autistic and I do not wish to be NT. I'm happy with myself. I have an autistic child and my NT wife and I both embrace him fully as he is. We're happy with him. We are happy.

I'm perplexed as to why you think you can make such a declarative statement when it's not possible to know the lives of all of the members here.
