[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I admit this gave me a bit of an eye-roll. This lady went to Harvard on a full ride, writes and advice column for Slate and various publications, has 3 kids and a husband.  And has just self-diagnose herself with autism..

Ah, Nicole Cliffe. She is a piece of work (although her parenting advice is usually pretty good).

I used to follow her on Twitter (until she inexplicably blocked me). She is incredibly self-absorbed, loves drama, married a rich guy (which she talks about all the time). She's basically a queen bee type for the digital age.[/quote]

Just coming in here to say basically the same thing. I've enjoyed a lot of her profiles of people, but Nicole Cliffe is mostly just really into Nicole Cliffe. A few years ago she converted to Christianity and wrote a huge article in Christianity Today about it. Not questioning her religion or her self-diagnosis, but whatever label she's identifying with--she's going to publicize the h*ll out of it. [/quote]

An autistic person is self absorbed?? You don't say!

You understand autism means self-ism[/quote]
