Ah... great post Smelena.

I'd suggest reposting to General Autism Discussion, because there are a LOT of stuff that can be used by adults as well.

Thanks.

Yes, great video, I kind of zoned when she started going on about meds, but still great.

(NOTE: once she starts about the meds, she doesn't go to another topic, so if you aren't interested in that, you can turn it off. I kept watching thinking maybe I would miss something.)

There was a BBC show with her and it's mostly about her relationship to animals. It was in 10 parts. I've seen her in person and she's great. I don't agree with everything she says but I do think she is a great role model and has a lot of good things to share about educating autistic people.
