This, friends, is how early beliefs about autism (then often called 'psychosis) happened, & got stuck like it. Paper after paper, journal after journal, built on stories invented by teams watching autistic ways of learning & finding joy in things - & making all of it negative.
Our amazing @AoifeSheridan98 spoke at todays @DubTrans launch You can find his speech here linkedin.com/pulse/trans-ne… And you can find us on July 13th standing with Trans and Intersex Pride at their annual pride protest #TransRightsAreHumanRights
"some autistic children learn language in a range of inherently atypical ways, including without neurotypical joint attentional skills" journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/13… editorial on gestalt language (& what if autistics generally learn in "inherently atypical ways" given the opportunity?)

The inimitable @AlannahEMurray cutting straight to the point, as always. Sticking our heads in the sand and pretending far right violence isn't a real and growing problem in Ireland solves nothing, it's long past time for accountability & reinvesment in homes and communities

@lukeming @GymRobcom @AsIAmIreland Whoops! Looks like there’s an ABA preschool in a certain ‘autism friendly’ town - an oversight to the in depth process I’m sure- unless Autistic children being abused is ‘autism friendly’? 🤔

I am going to say, it's absolutely fucking terrifying that all these attacks on the most basic meagre supports for disabled people are being bulldozed in just as assisted dying/euthanasia is getting political traction. Anyone who knows an ounce disability history sees it.

Today, MPs will be discussing #AssistedDying. "Don't worry!" they'll say. "It would only be for terminally ill people. There will be safeguards!" We know all about your "safeguards" for disabled people, thanks.

I look forward to listening to this podcast. Our Dept of Education (NI) acknowledged within their restrictive practices review that corporal punishment still exists in our schools through a legislative loophole 👇 England's legislation has similar wording. Repeal Art.4(1)(c)!!
Next week we record the first of the #FierceCuriosity Podcasts - where @garywrobinson & I invite guests who can help us to see how care of children has improved (& where it hasn't). We're starting with the domain of corporal punishment. Can't wait to bring you all these stories!
@DavidOSheaSLT @AusomeIreland @iaslt @sig_autism @AsIAmIreland @AdamPHarris @HollyCairnsTD This definitely is a point for future research. Thank you for bringing it up
@AusomeIreland Many thanks for this information. I will share this with my colleagues and post it on the clinic page @kerrysltclinic
@AusomeIreland @kerrysltclinic @AusomeIreland 😊 I would love to chat more about this course next week if you are interested? 😊
@AusomeIreland @DominikaLis007 @iaslt @sig_autism @AsIAmIreland @AdamPHarris @HollyCairnsTD Hi there 😊 Thanks for your comment. It was not possible during this study to validate what SLT services each autistic child received or any therapy approach used. It would be a very important area to focus on, especially when neuroaffirmative approaches are what is needed.
Consultation open until 7th June. Don't let a new curriculum be done "to" you. If teachers don't contribute we can't complain about what we end up with. Parents & academics will be contributing. Don't let the voice of the classroom teacher be lost. #1 ncca.ie/en/primary/pri…
This teaches complicity and is very one sided 🥴 Also doesn’t take into account what some neurodivergent brains need.

There is a clear pattern in NI whereas those who have been found to have caused significant harm have went on to be hugely rewarded and faced no disciplinary sanctions. Instead of setting moral precedent, they set the bar on the floor.
Last year, civil service boss Jayne Brady absurdly claimed it was "on a journey of continuous improvement". Yesterday Brady (who costs £230k a year) admitted it has "failed". Expect those involved to be rewarded, not disciplined. ➡️belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/health/co… belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/health/co…
We move on to a young artist, in which again we are encouraged to believe this is also a sign of 'psychosis' (autism). Er...ok.... Next, a child having a fabulous time with lighting. We are told it is 'obsessional preoccupation'. He probably became a lighting engineer.../
Next we are shown an alleged 'psychotic' child (autistic) who appears to be having a good time picking stuff off the ground. The next child seems clearly in sensory/social overwhelm and trying to find a safe space to retreat to. The next again, utterly fed up with being tested/
This, friends, is how early beliefs about autism (then often called 'psychosis) happened, & got stuck like it. Paper after paper, journal after journal, built on stories invented by teams watching autistic ways of learning & finding joy in things - & making all of it negative.
The children are given a mirror. The team invent their reasons for behaving as they do with the mirror, and invent a story that some of them didn't recognise themselves. Watch the film. See if you agree with the team. I don't.
The children watch an object being put behind a glass screen. An adult holds the screen in place. The team assume some of them don't understand that they can reach round it. But, if an adult stops you getting access, it's rude to reach round. Did they consider this? Seems not/
Certainly in the '50s and indeed '60s, if e.g. your mother covered food with a cloth, it was a common sign that you were Not To Take the Food Or Move The Cloth. The cloth would keep flies etc off the food until mealtime. Did they consider this? Seems not.
...by the time the Clinicians had written their view of it, every single part of this was WRONG. What a shame they didn't understand autistic ways of learning and enjoying life.
This is a strange one. A historian, looking at old Clinical films of autistic children, in the 1950s. journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11… and I want us to talk about the YouTube of one of them youtube.com/watch?v=BipJue… /
