I took University of Minnesota professor Matt McGue's Coursera class in Human Behavioral Genetics and we read heavily about eugenics both in the US and abroad. It is... |

| Awareness helped me a lot because without I never have been diagnosed and know who I really am. But while it has been good for a subset of older adults I believe it has been bad overall because of the type of awareness and the continuing uncertainty and disagreement as to what Autism is.
