[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I still don’t think people really truly understand what “profound autism” really is. For our family member it includes the fact that they will likely never fully potty train, care for themself in any meaningful way or be left alone for any length of time. And this person is already close to being adult age so the likelihood that things will all the sudden turn a corner is highly unlikely. I can assure you, most folks dealing with actual profound autism are not offended by using that term. It seems everyone else is, but not people who are actually dealing with it.[/quote] Exactly. OP clearly is more interested in getting brownie points than actually discussing anything. [/quote]
