Joe Ingles: Article on Son's Autism Diagnosis

There is something unique about autistic kids in a mysterious way. I had a client who had autistic kid. Once he left a drawing in a waiting room full of zombies, flying saucers and blood dripping message written in the sky - "Government is watching you".

Carcosa?
 
My oldest son is an extrovert with autism spectrum issues. He works at TJMaxx a few hours a weeks, goes to baseball and hockey games, etc. My youngest is also enjoys being around people. Autism is about sensing the world in a different way than most people do, AFAICT.

i suppose i'm used it being like a family friend of ours kid growing up who was profoundly autistic and almost non verbal but through a lot of work he is now able to socialise, has a job ect

Agreed. I had an autistic kid about five years ago at school. Smartest kid in the class. Polite. Not weird in any way. Got good grades. Just quiet. **** man, I was really quiet too as a kid. I was often intimidated without meaning to be. We all have different social curves and I think this kid maybe had one but was marked Autistic because hey, it’s easier for the parents or schools, depending, to explain him. Which sucks and is ******** for that kid and ones like him.

Schools get extra funding for autistic kids here, girl I know had four in her class.
 
nah he'll be hopping on the first plane home when he's done playing

Can you blame him with these American ideas of freedom?

Stop drinking my Kool-Aid (just a hint its not really Kool-Aid)

It's not that more kids are getting it, it's that the spectrum of autism has significantly widened and and diagnosis has become easier
Is that actually true? I've read that it definitely is on the increase and due to things like vaccination -- which contrary to all the establishment claims, is not completely safe (a state representative recently died after a flu vaccination) -- environmental toxins in the air, water, and in our food which are causing a rash of increases in many neurological conditions in addition to autism like Parkinsons, Alzheimers, MS, etc.

Vaccinations are much safer than not having them. i think the base levels of chemicals in food products, pesticides, preservatives and they way they accumulate in our bodies might have something to do with it but what the hell do i know?

You are probably right about vaccinations, but if you are healthy and your immune system is strong, they're not worth the risk, because there is some risk. The problem with what all the medical pros are saying is that they claim is no risk whatsoever, and that simply is not true.
