[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]yeah, that ASD spectrum thing is BS. Always was. Also, the ADHD+Dyslexia+high IQ is different from just one of the three. Come to think of it, so is ADHD with a profoundly high IQ. You know this is done by a committee right? Stupidest way ever to do it too. Really old white men mostly with a few younger (50s) ppl to round it out. I ran the Autism committee (as a staffer) for this last round when they did the spectrum and the disfunction among these ppl was intense. They should not have been allowed to name a child much less a group of disabilities.[/quote] Honestly I wish you’d talk to the New York Times or wapo. The asd is a spectrum bs is the biggest hustle/ ruse in the history of time. It’s utter laziness and they only get away with it bc as a pp pointed out - ‘social deficits’ is so very subjective and basically covers anyone who isn’t George Clooney level of charming [/quote]
