Well said. And I have to say I agree. When most people think about autism it is not talking about low-end autism. Personally I dont really consider someone withlow-end autism to be autistic.its a world that carries a lot of connotations ,and seems very harsh. I would not, for example, call you autistic, I would call you eccentric. You do not exhibit most any of the major symptoms that are used to define autism. Yes, technically you have a minor derivitave of autism, but you're not really autistic if you understand what im trying to say. No, low functioning autism isn't really a bad thing. But high functioning autisim is a sever disorder, and when people talk about "curing autisim", ect, that's what they mean.

Talk To Me Quote Archive I've got no place to go, I've got nowhere to run.
They love to watch me fall, they think they know it all.
I'm a nightmare, a disaster, that's what they always said.
I'm a lost cause, not a hero, but I'll make it on my own.
I've gotta prove them wrong - It's me against the world. It is, in the end, whatever the **** I want it to be.
And when I'm through with it, it's gonna blow a hole this wide
straight through the worlds own idea of itself.
...
Come on, lets go break their arms. |
