Monday I had an argument with the online ASD community I attend. As an older Aspie, I can say that ASD has completely ruined my life. I cannot count the many opportunities that I missed due to ASD.
That ASD community insists that ASD is a wonderful superpower, and if anyone has a problem is because society is not accepting it. They even disagreed with the acronym ASD since "autism is not a disorder", and insisted that ASD should not be treated since it's not an illness or a disability.
It's just me, or this point of view is becoming more and more common? Why so many people are starting to subscribe to that "social model" of ASD?
well you could toss a wrench into that and tell them if its not a disorder they should cancel their pip then, and save their words and send it to the jobcenter and have the jobcenter see that they have no issues and dont need pip lol
lol I would do that but they are already scared to death about losing their benefits
