Couldn’t disagree more but I respect your opinion.
I am autistic. I am kind, I am hyper-empathetic and giving. I want to leave the world a better place than I found it. I am successful because of my differences not despite them. Telling people like me there is something wrong with me that needs to be ‘cured’ says to me that you think there is a right way to think, and act, and a wrong way.
Like I said, I couldn’t disagree more, but I respect your right to have your opinions.
I have used the same reasoning with the same condition — diabetes. I can love someone with diabetes and still wish they didn't suffer from all the difficulties the condition brings.
We're told to be awareness, accept and celebrate autism- the disorder with no known cause, prevention or cure, that's always increasing.
How is this rational thinking?
Thank you, Ginger!
