I'd vote for Will for president!!!!!

Apsies, let go already. They are NOT talking about you. These children couldn't talk... people with Aspergers can. Different condition altogether! Stop already. You are missing the social cues and jumping on the band wagon. The CDC is never going to help until the number of vaccine injured is 1 in 10... maybe not even then.

[BansheeFriend]

I know him, he's 15 now and I didnt even know he had autism until i saw this, that's how much he's improved.

Parents are saying Green our vaccines.

Facts:

1983: Autism rate 1 in 10,000

Vac. sched. 10 shots

2008: Autism rate in boys 1 in 70

Vac. sched. 36

My sons last words after his shots:

"My name is Tanner. My name is Tanner."

Show me any other campaign for disinformation. Remove the Mercury, Alum., formaldehyde, ether, antifreeze. Reevaluate the sched. What was the death rate from these deadly diseases in 1983 that we had to add 26 shots? All we need is therapy, respite, and recovery.

The reason that it is a spectrum is that there are 100+ genes involved. It is not one disorder or disability. I agree. It is unfair to lump all of these LD's into one disorder.

I don't think Asperger's is the same as autism. In many cases, it is more of a personality type. In some cases, it is an excuse for being an asshole. It is clear that many Aspies are not tolerant of opposing views.

[staciejung]

It isn't fair that the Aspies are painting all autistic people with one broad brush. You can communicate, be successful, marry. Not everyone on the spectrum can. There are children who cannot process language and when they cannot, they suffer, they scream, they cry, they are not happy. I've seen it in my daughter. Being different is fine as long as you are still able to function in the human world. If you cannot, life can be very painful. You may not want to be "fixed," but a child in pain does.

[666sigma]

So how is helping your child to communicate "fixing a broken normie"? I sure as hell dn't see it in this viceo. How is it any different than teaching your child math or to play baseball?

We are all different. Everyone has stengths and weaknesses. However, communication is a core skill set that everyone needs to acquire to function in this world.

[aspie182]

It is beyond your level of understanding because you have no idea what it feels like to be treated as a second-class human being simply for being born different to those in power. Autismdiva finds fault with Lyn Redwood for the same reason I do. Her words make it clear she views her autistic child as a broken normie rather than an autistic human being.

[aspie182]

Right. I know nothing about autism. I'll tell you what, stupidnick9933, go look up the names Anthony Attwood and Isabelle Hénault. They are two of the autism specialists I speak with more frequently than you knowingly look at an autistic human being in the flesh. When you get an eyeful of how many letters next to their name, consider that with few exceptions, they are in agreement with everything I have been saying in my videos (and about ones like these).

[aspie182]

Pardon me, min, but people who have devoted their lives to studying autism such as Tony Attwood believe you are full of crap. Do not assume people have not studied the problem just because they do not parrot your thoughtless words.
