I'm just kind of interested in the subject of medical ID bracelets and generally curious as to what you think of them for autistics. Do you think they're necessary? Would you wear one?

I have a Medic Alert card. A metal link bracelet would drive me nuts and I would probably tear it off without realizing it.

I think they could be useful for some people, but I wouldn't wear one.
