Why parents should hope for Autistic children
I was recently at the home of a friend who, within the past ten years, has produced three Neurotypical little s**ts, and is expecting another on the way. Writhing, screaming, howling, frog-like s**ts, with puffy little red ogre's faces, beads for eyes, and flat little button noses beneath blonde Aryan hair like dead straw. These little s**ts kept walking up to me, saying the same s**t over and over again, howling and screaming at me in their high-pitched shrills, no matter how much I told them to f**k off in as polite a way as I could possibly think of. Apparently these neurotypical little reverse-shits do not understand the meaning of "No" or "I'm not interested". Oh, how I only wish abortion were legalized...
It came to me then that most parents should not fear, but instead hope for shy, quiet, socially ret*d little autistic children who stay in their rooms, reading, drawing, writing, painting, and above all learning. Children who know to bother no one. It has always confused me how fear-mongering documentaries on Autism tried to portray Autistic children being "in their own little world" as a bad thing, when it means simply that they are not only more civil but also are allowed a greater degree of contact with the other planes of existence that most of us fear and in our fear attempt to dismiss as mere illusion.
So, expectant and hoping parents, please, please pray for a little Autistic child who knows his or her place and won't bother anyone, instead of the hideous waste of flesh and resources that so many loud and monstrous neurotypical children seem to be.
Well the way you put it, Autism sounds appealing..
However, Autism/Aspergers can put a tremendous financial strain on a family, with seeing doctors/specialists, drugs, and therapy. It can also lead to mental and marital tension as well. While there are positives to autism, like you stated, I don't necessarily think the pro's outweigh the cons.

Again, depends on the severity of the autism.
Myself, and a few other people with AS that I know were very placid as children. Like you describe. Reading, Writing, doing crafts alone.
But there are some children with AS and classical autism that are just as loud and disruptive as many NT children.
As for therapies, you also have to consider whether or not the kid NEEDS those therapies. If the kids really are the "sit alone in their room doing things" kind, then they probably don't need therapy in the first place.
Tigers.
Need more tigers.
Tigers eat people. Too many people. Not enough tigers.
How many tigers? Can you guess?
One per week. 1/3 get eaten. Live to 69. 6 Billion people.
600,000 tigers needed.
Evil in threes.

Those kids just sound like brats, thats just bad parenting. My younger son has classic autism and will at time vocalize very loudly while were out of the house but I'll alway remind him to use his inside out of the house voice and unless he's on the verg of breaking down and we'll remove him from were ever we are to the car or bathroom until he is ok again. We get coments from doctors and other peaple who know about autism about how well behaved he is <most of the time>.My older son who is as far as we know or care to know is classifed as a nt kid but is alot like the kid you desribed sitting in there room doing what ever he intrest is atm right now he's making his own card games. Teachers other parents ect tell me all the time what a great kid he is but he was also taught to respect others and how to behave from the time he could walk. My point being kids do what they can get away with it's human. My boys know if you do XYZ you'll get Computer time, to go to the park ect and if they don't they won't it's easy. It was the same when I was growning up with my 2 brothers and sister if we were good kids we got to do the things we liked if were weren't we got to do nothing until we could prove that we could behave <alway harder then behaving in the first place>. Anyway I belive all kids can be spoiled nasty brats if not given the right kind of guidance and all kids can be a joy if they are taught how to behave.

Dear me, what is this mess?
Well, at least you're a Garbage fan.
The amazing thing is that noisy, obnoxious, dirty-minded, immature little brats grow into model citizens, with highly successful careers, handsome spouses and lots of children (all parents wish for grandchildren), while most of us grow into disappointing misfits and all-round failures...

I see what you mean (I definitely prefer Autie to NT kids). But, because of what I went through, I would never wish it on another child. If I would ever consider having kids (very unlikely) I would adopt (there is one acception to the adoption policy though/if I got a "signal" that I was supposed to have "this kid"/ yeah right). I would feel guilty if my child was given this condition b/c of me, but if they were NT, I would probably commit suicide (I am serious, most/but not all, NT kids make me crazy).

I have no idea why you think kids on the spectrum are inherrently quiet or shy and to suggest a parent should hope for an autistic child is put quite bluntly... strange. If they want a quiet child, they should wish for a quiet child.
What the heck is wrong with little button noses and "blond aryan hair"?

the latter only goes for those cure-autism-now-like parents, who want to make NT kids out of their offspring...
