[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Getting rid of the Asperger’s diagnosis and putting the moderately quirky kids under the same umbrella as profoundly disabled autistics has done a huge disservice to the community. As a parent of such a child, our voices and experiences have been totally erased. So many extremely high functioning people feel they can speak for my child, our family, and me as if they can relate to my child’s experience at all. They can’t. I cannot stand it. [/quote] How has this happened? What are some examples?[/quote]
