| Because, and how could anyone be so naive as to think otherwise: newspapers are SELECTIVE. They don't automatically carry any item you want them to. They serve their own and their owners' agendas to portray the world in a certain-angled way |

| Then you can go read the evidence that they were. See that the 2 absurdly banned leaders of local groups for them were prominent enough figures outside aff, that at the time of posting, folks could check up on them + verify about them. |

| As a duty to vulnerability and safety, it is blank cheque automatically always unethical to love anywhere where anyone else at all was getting wronged. |

| I feel honoured that they fought for us all. They did not fight for you, if you did not yet exist. They fought for their own situation at the time, and were plonked in it by their govts instead of giving any support to coup plots in Germany. The emotional abuse and ego bullying done to every genera... |

| To other readers. Saying "No point in continuing to debate" must never be allowed to serve as a trick for bagsying the last word. Instead it serves as an abdication of the last word and gives me it on a plate. Whenever anyone full of pushy bossy advice is so rude as to repeatedly make atta... |

NAS is the really prominent one.
Claims stand when they are evidenced. They don't stand speculatively until evidenced against, as in "how is it clear they didn't: and I had already cited examples who didn't. |

| A teacher who evidently had the necessary connections to the relevant publisher. Necessary? That's a jump of logic. Neither all child authors nor all authors have to have a social connection to a publisher at their start. eg the Aultbea ones in the noughties had clearly not had that, nor Kenneth Ha... |

| Well, at the very least, you need to point to the already-existing statistics and cite your sources. That's what the dates were. Sourced on those kids' dates of first publishing, and the gap's searchability by anyone. Have you researched the circumstances under which those particular kids were pick... |

| No, it would take a LOT more than a couple of lines. Why no back-up for that? This is about stating the case, as opposed to potential evidencings of it .. You should not assume that most people are fully aware that there was such a gap, in the first place. If I'm pointing it out to them, I'm hardly... |

| How would I document it in a standalone blog, then? The case only takes a couple of lines to make, as I have done there and in the Bittersweet book. That the seeming gap in any non-famous kids emerging as authors between 1978 and 2001 correlates with the generation when conservative backlash hardlin... |

| Of child authors: but as an autism-related topic because we seem to have a high rate of being them, as serious-minded kids, resulting in reactions to books like this happening every couple of years. |

| Autistic Pride Day is totally unethical (though many local organisers don't know that) and should not be held. When accountability for abuse exists properly and non-selectively, Autistic Pride Day will no longer be able to happen. autisticgroupsfairnesswatch.wordpress.com/2018/06/15/autistic-pride-d... |

| Is this a rant against your efforts being forgotten? No need to personalise it. Against the whole topic getting forgotten instead of passed on whenever child authors are spoken of. So that there can still be folks who don't know the issue exists, and in all innocence of causing pain write about the... |
