Guest guest Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 Strange things are happening ... the web-site of "Autism Speaks" now has essays BY adult autistic members ... Here is one, titled (incredibly for that group) "This is Why I Speak" —http://blog.autismspeaks.org/2011/11/14/this-is-why-i-speak/It wasn't so long ago that, if an autistic even disclosed his/her condition during a phone-call/letter/face-to-face chat with an "Autism Speaks" employee or member, the "Autism Speaks" person would either end the conversation/correspondence or switch to cooing baby-talk. I wonder if anything else there will change ... Maybe if they can devote more than 1%-5% of their "take" to their expressed purposes, rather than to throwing yet another party at the Playboy Mansion ...Kate Gladstone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
