        @sapinker not a fan of the language "treatment for autism," but I'm all for resources allocated to work with individuals on the spectrum.

        @sapinker @pmarca @WIRED 'Aid' might be better term. Eg offering help with facial expression recognition.

        @sapinker @pmarca @WIRED Polite correction - autism a spectrum of psychological conditions, not a disease, and as such can't be 'treated'.
