  • Hello Arman, Thanks for posting this video and every other video, along with your blogs, they're very eye-opening and quite helpful. Do you think you could do a video or blog about labeling or terms that may or may not be offensive to individuals with autism? (i.e. autistic vs person with autism, disabled, etc..)

  • @purplehayz03 People first language is usually a good positive way to address people, unless they are wanting to identify with the culture of being on the autism spectrum, in which case it would be fine to describe the person as autistic. If you don't know, it is always better to use people first language. Autism is moreso a difference rather than disability, so probably disability is going to be offensive to say especially to people with HFA or Aspergers.

  • @fsblah I am about to make a video, but I have found it is often parents that prefer people first language while individuals on the autism spectrum often prefer the term autistic. I will address this in my video.

  • @purplehayz03 Thank you :) The video is about to go up in a few seconds.

  • The same thing happens to me when I try to record a video on youtube of myself. I think it would be easier if I just have a discussion with someone and then have that recorded (without my knowledge would be best) so I am not thinking of what the viewer is seeing. Maybe its different for you, but that ALWAYS happens to me.
