I know very well that autism is a spectrum. I believe all of humanity is a spectrum. I just want fearful desperate people to know that a dx is not the end of the world for an individual, or her family. I choose not to discriminate against disabled people. That is not denial. It is acceptance.
In addition, my daughter was not born with autism. She developed this condition after about a year and a half. Your ignorance puts your mind in a state to believe that all autistic cases are exactly like your own child's. The fact is, not every case is the same, and indeed, I WILL make sure my daughter recovers from her "medical condition" called "autism spectrum disorder"
Several. In fact my daughter's school has over 200 autistic people, some are adults. I think you should visit a place like this where they are all there for help and get to get better.
Perhaps you should keep your own kids from the educational system that offers additional therapy for autistic children. Because according to you, it's an insult.
??? Have you interacted with any adult autistics? Most of them are offended by the notion of "recovery". Maybe it makes "zero difference" to you, but what you tell her about herself forms her self-esteem. If you are bound and determined to "get rid of her autism", that doesn't help her learn that it is okay to have a disability.
By the way, you are the queen of assumptions. No one said anything about snake oil. I don't believe in exploiting parents of autistic children either. No one has ever sold me anything that claimed to heal my kid. I'm not like the other desperate and foolish parents that you may have met in the past. My 3 year old child is indeed recovering from autism from a combination of a better/restrictive diet, therapy and education, and love and support from people that love her. Not snake oil.
Sorry, but autism is not like eye color. You refuse to believe that it's an "un normal" condition because you are afraid that you may be putting your child down. i get that, but denial never helps a child with any condition.
Autism is yet to be proven past theory that it's genetic. And if it is genetic, it may very well be a genetic mutation, not a family trait.
You are a very combative parent. I'm not putting your kids down. So there's no need to defend them with me.

What is wrong with you? You are trying to prove something that makes zero difference either way.

tscha. This from the boy who refused to learn that the mercury in his old thermostat was not organic, but elemental.

Your 3 year old is growing up with autism, not "recovering" from it.
