Of course people are going to take it personally if you call them names. While there is institutional privilige and ism's there is individual versions of these things also. And these insititutions are made up of individuals. If you are not part of the problem you should not be guilt tripped for it. |

It is also tricky because of sociatal changes. Because of social media jobs do require more social skills than the same job would have in the past. An employee mishandling social media or and employee with a grudge could mean public shaming or worse for the company. Employers wonder if a person with... |

Aspergers and HFA should have been the same thing because does it matter after age 3 if you had language impairments until age 3? Maybe at age 4 or 5 not at puberty or later. I do not see Aspergers coming back as an official diagnosis. After going through all the controversy and forcing it through a... |

Besides the aformentioned Carly Flieschman there was a member here Kingdom of Rats whose posts were informative.
Otherwise all one can do is guess, guess, guess another words do unto the severe what has been done us which is wrong. |

It is their fault for using wrong tactics of bullying, language policing, public shaming and so on. A lot of progressive ideas that were accepted or became policy became that way by a combination of education and persuading people that the ideas were not a threat personally. The LGBT movement is a p... |

The two main mega groups are. Those that want most money to be spent trying to find causes and a cure. People in this group view autism mainly as a series of impairments and think autistics need to try to be as normal as possible. The other group thinks of autism as a combination of impairments and ... |
