Re: Re: studying how to prevent us- flipping the script!

Bob and everyone,

I please lack of executive function-

Tongue in cheek (and no offense meant),

why don't we teach these NTs a thing or two about fitting in with us? After

all, if wwe ran the world, here is what might happen:

(1) Certain Nt kids would be diagnosed as too distractable to finish a task--

with too much desire to socialize to get the job done! No perseveration.

(Autistic parents might ask where they went wrong...)

(2) Some NT kids would not exercise nearly enough- after all, rocking back

and forth does burn calories. (I have done it when alone, just because it is

exercise that I can do while at my computer. No kidding!)

(3) Some NTs have diagnosable rudeness. All these rude NTs need to be taught

some manners! If soneone is in a wheel chair, society has taught people not to

stare at the chair, or push it over and laugh, but when it comes to people on

the autism spectrum, these NTs have little imagination-- they cannot see autism,

so they think that they can be rude about its effects.

There is a whole website like this- with " diagnosable " NT traits- I have

listed just a few! Check out

" Institute for the Study of the Neurologically Typical " : <isnt.autistics.org>

According to this website, " there is no cure " for this mysterious disorder.

If I read that right they are trying to teach autistics to be NT...
