Let's talk about PDA - as someone with lived experience with it and also secondary experience with my kid, this is how I see it- what do other #autistic #ActuallyAutistic people think? @PDASociety @Theautisticedu1 @autisticdoc
Spoiler alert, those parents are correct. It's not essential to attend school every day. Children can learn and succeed in many ways and school is not essential for this. It's one way to learn, and it doesn't suit everyone.

I fixed their research paper for them. On the left, the start of the research paper I mentioned yesterday. Someone said it was absolutely fine. Well, no. So, on the right, a modern alternative version. There. Isn't that better.
A story of why school is not for all.. For many years we tried incredibly hard to get our child to school to the point in impacted further on their mental health and resulted in a breakdown. They had wanted to go to school so we had all kept trying. 1/

Following the crazy Lori Vallow trial- in case parents are listening- another advantage of the autistic mind is that we are least likely to fall for cults #ActuallyAutistic
This whole thread is dangerous & damaging to #autistic people. This person has so much power and needs to listen better to understand #autism & the harm that is being caused #nothingaboutuswithoutus

Identifying autistic adults in general psychiatry is a new concept for many doctors. As a #neurodivergent physician in the audience, I was heartened to see psychiatrists curious, respectful and eager to improve. Well done @bernaharbor for this talk. Igniting change!
The neurotypical art of knowing when they have enough social capital to break the rules… So damn successful. And I am blindsided every time! 🤣 #autistic
Human beings neurotypical or neurodivergent are complex beings and unidimensional compliance based approaches are a violation of our humanness #NeurodiversityCelebrationWeek mini🧵 from an #ActuallyAutistic perspective
Neurodiversity affirmative (NDA) is the new paradigm in the world of autism. NDA assessment NDA supports NDA education NDA healthcare NDA autism research A neurodiversity affirmative approach will transform outcomes for autistic people, particularly wrt mental health #ITAKOM_CONF
Most people do not understand that some people use enormous amounts of energy just to be normal. #Itakom
