[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you have a child with autism and you're going around saying you hate autism, you're a bad parent. Plain and simple. Your job is to advocate and support your child. You should be working to make the world a more accommodating and supportive environment. Your child has enough struggles without his/her own parents spewing hateful words. I hate neurotypicals!! They don't know how to follow a routine, insist on talking in codes rather than just saying what they mean, insist on variety just for the sake of it, and don't let me stim when that's a key way for me to emotionally regulate., etc. etc. That would be a really awful thing to say, right? Don't use hate when it comes to your kids. Should be an easy rule.[/quote] This is horrible and frankly, PP, you are horrible for saying it. If I have a child with cancer, am I not allowed to say that I hate cancer? Cancer is NOT my child, nor my child's identity. [/quote] Ahem. Obviously the correct thing to say is that you hate the SYMPTOMS of cancer, not cancer itself! Saying you hate cancer when your kid has cancer makes you a bad parent! So we have learned today from the sanctimoniously offended moms using this post as a chance to pile on to a woman already having a tough time. :roll: [/quote] She herself says that the first time anyone said he had autism was this counselor, we don't know what this kid has but clearly the mom is having a hard time so why post this as an autism thread and not focus on the other issues which the child definitely has? This is a little weird, maybe the kid does or maybe he doesn't but the A Word is not going to help, learning to deal with the behavior will and letting go of blaming AUTISM when it might be something else. Maybe there are mental health issues... [/quote]
