@Miss_Snuffy It’s regrettable that parenting culture would seem to yearn for any means to quieten a child in a quick way such as this.

We don’t need “innovative” solutions to the youth mental health crisis, like I keep hearing articles refer to…we need timely service accession and equal access to high-quality care.

@NiDhubhda @AutisticDoctor @DoctorsAutistic Completely agree. Regrettably, from personal experience, I think far greater education on this topic is needed amongst ED staff.

@Miss_Snuffy I’m not an educator, but I completely agree. There is so much to be gleaned from these works, to disregard them is nothing more than the watering down of education.

@Miss_Snuffy The music industry has so much to answer for with regards to their influence on children. I’m not saying parents shouldn’t be held accountable for managing what their children listen to; but nonetheless some of the material out there is a grotesque influence.

I went through almost all of second level education with a mere 7-10 hours weekly home tuition. Me thinks a paper needs to be written about this for the next generation of #autistic children who are going to struggle with mainstream school.

@BarryJFleming @ResearchPixie I wish this was a universal experience for autistic folks. Even with copious amounts of “phone-bravery” I still struggle to get an appointment within a 2/3 week timeframe.
