It is very lengthy and difficult to read at times The Lost Girls
This article was not something I found. Credit goes to blogger Emily Willingham who recommended the article as one of the best autism articles of 2015 |

If you want your autistic child to grow up well or just want Autistic kids not to have to deal with some of the nonsense what we had to deal with in the lost generation you should not want these eugenics ideas to start becoming more entrenched and you should favor these ideas becoming less acceptabl... |

So the autistics and supporters on WP support eugenics if it is done just for the money, great just great. I know this is not sterilization, yet. I guess I am just paranoid because I think history can repeat itself. What I do not understand for the life of me is there is post after post, year after ... |

The evidence might not dictate that Bill Cosby is guilty but do you doubt it? It's just the shear number accusers and a fundamental change in how we approach accusations of sexual assault that has made the difference, we've known about these accusations for a long time now. Do you now believe Cosby... |

Now as for a cure, I woudn't support it if it were used on high-functioning kids. I think most people in Autism Speaks refer to low-functioning kids on the spectrum when they're talking about a cure. For instance, imagine a non-verbal autistic kid who is smart but since because he/she cannot use la... |

I think the thing that pisses me off about some of this is this: 1) People like to think they are caring. But, most can only care about things they actually see a) Ex: young person with a hidden disability gets out of a car in handicapped parking. people harangue him (even though he has ID with pro... |

Here's how this works: 1. Women have the right to be aware of who they're reproducing with. 2. Sperm banks must ask for info about the man in order to provide the info to the woman so she can be informed. 3. Sperm banks cost money to operate. 4. In order to maximize efficiency, sperm banks must cho... |

From a discussion on Reddit: Completely agree. How does this even deserve discussing? It's clearly the sensible option They also won't accept donors with a strong family history of cancer. That makes sense, these aren't desirable or beneficial traits to have So we are as bad as cancer now. Brillian... |

It certainly can be confusing and frightining to find out at lot assumptions you have made about yourself were wrong. It is common for adults to find out they are on the Autism spectrum as a result of thier child's diagnosis. For a lot of us the Aspergers explanation instead of the charactor flaw ex... |
