Some of us are, yes. Nothing illegal, though.

It is really cute to watch them jump through hoops for a morsel, though. Kinda like sea world. XD

I hope one day doctors can scan the brains of people with autism. This will lead to treatments.


Am I misunderstanding this guy?

I'm asking because I would <3 for there to be a brain scan that could detect autism. This would be far more objective than "Well, you seem autistic to me" diagnoses that are influenced by the biases and experiences of the psych and it'd be far quicker/easier.

If there was such a technology, I'd use it in a heartbeat.

And, furthermore, treatments would be awesome! You guys are delusional if you think autism isn't a deficit.

Are you guys on drugs?


That's what I'm wondering...

If they are, they clearly aren't the type that treats autism...

No, he just was trolling all day yesterday and is being rude in several of his posts so we just aren't responding as if he were a normal contributing member of a community. :)

(And some of the previous responses were afraid of possible eugenics or abortions based on the autistic status of the child.)
