      As a man on the spectrum I will not mince words: You do not love your daughter if you view her personality, and all that she is, as a "brain injury."https://twitter.com/janesmith659/status/977320793603563520 …

      The vaccine given to my child 22 years ago which caused her brain injury (aka autism) isn’t in use anymore either. So your point? Vaccines are nothing but human experimentation.

      There's no reasoning intellectually with a person who seriously still believes that. But honestly at this point, the reduction of autism to "brain injury" pisses me off more than any other part of this statement. No one who believes that is fit to raise an autistic child.

      I do understand that for many parents, learning your child is on the spectrum is a blow to what you thought being a parent would be like. What I do NOT understand is rejecting or writing off your child as "injured." To me, that is no different from condemning an LGBT kid.

          This is my 5 year old son, Jackson, who was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder at 15 months old. He had his fifth brain/skull surgery 10 days ago (3 of the 5 have been since Feb 2017). He’s has to work *so hard* to do/learn just the basics. He’s a JOY. Bravest kid I know.pic.twitter.com/uCN9O4X3Fz

          It should be said he’s so extraordinarily musically gifted, it’s inexplicable to me having been classically trained my whole life. He matches pitch with perfect precision, can memorize a melody after first listen, can riff instrument sounds on the fly. All before he was verbal.

          As someone on the spectrum with kids on the spectrum, I feel it’s important to recognize that kids on the far end of the spectrum do have damage to how their brain functions. It isn’t like high-functioning autism.

          Agree - future parents need to be aware they could have children with physical or mental or emotional difficulties who need special help that will change their lives forever.

          Autism is not a brain injury or ailment. It is a processing difference. One that makes it difficult to operate and learn in a society geared toward a common denominator. Our inability and unwillingness to accept and accommodate these differences is what gives them 'disability'.
