#AskingAutistics to please tweet our amazing trans delegate @pwcdanica in Virginia to let her know that HB1722 to allow private ABA providers into public schools should NOT be passed as ABA is abusive autistic conversion therapy pioneered by the founders of gay conversion therapy
If done properly, it's not harmful. Then again, I can't expect nuance here.

Research shows ABA is both unhelpful for and traumatic to autistics. Maybe quit the insults and look into the facts behind it.

ABA is ALWAYS coercion, and thus ALWAYS unethical and abusive. If it‘s not coercion, then it‘s not ABA - and can and should be done outside of ABA therapy, with actual professionals, in the actual best interest of the person receiving the therapy.

Done IN ANY FASHION, WITH ANY INTENT, ABA is abuse. It cannot be “done properly” any more than child abuse can—because IT’S ABUSE.pic.twitter.com/GWGruAuXyZ

I know it probably hurts to hear that a choice you’ve made is harming your child, but maybe sit with that discomfort and really try to examine what your kid is going through objectively instead of rabidly attacking everyone who speaks out about that harm.

*Done properly: https://twitter.com/melani_e_/status/1210420684444200960?s=21 … Kids are also made to work for food & hunger is forced for several hours to make it conducive
Fully trained rBT here & half way thru BCBA
ABA is harmful WHEN “done properly”
Sometimes therapists have too much empathy to “do properly”https://twitter.com/Melani_e_/status/1210420684444200960 …

Beyond the BS “done correctly” - what do you mean you can’t expect nuance here?
-
They blocked me so I can’t directly respond but I’m assuming they mean “autistic people can’t see things correctly or in a nuanced way”

ABA is glorified dog training designed to make the parents feel better by putting the kid through torture. If this passes in Virginia it will heavily affect any decision to ever move to that state as they will condone child torture in public schools.
