• Theory of Mind and Self

  
  Neoteny, sexual selection, cause of autism, human evolution, social transformation, left organizing and internet activism - how they all connect — Authority: 124
  I’d been studying Asperger’s and autism in connection to human evolution for maybe ten years before it dawned on me, after reading Michael Fitzgerald’s Autism and Creativity , that Asperger’s was a feature of my childhood.  As I was growing up, people seemed opaque to me.  I was in speech therapy almost all ...

  Facing Autism in New Brunswick — Authority: 425
  The declaration has been made by celebrity "autists"or "autistics" like Michelle Dawson, Amanda Baggs, Ari Neeman and various Neurodiversity bloggers that ""We", persons with autism spectrum disorders, do not want to be cured".

• What really happens when the blind lead the blind?

  
  Spectrum Siblings — Authority: 112
  Think back for a moment and consider if you’ve heard either of these phrases for a moment: “When the Blind lead the Blind, both fall into a ditch.” “In the land of the Blind, the one-eyed man is king”. Likely that exercise wasn’t too difficult, if you’re anything like me, you’ve heard these phrases ...

• Rough Week comes to Promising Conclusion

  
  Spectrum Siblings — Authority: 112
  This week with the boys started out very rough. It was a full moon, the weather was changing, and day lights savings was coming into play. To add onto this both boys are having their medication dosages changed. I was crushed by last Sunday’s experience, when Lawrence recoiled from my touch and hid from my presence, ...

• Neurodiversity Nonsense: lbrb Just Gets Weirder and Weirder

  
  Facing Autism in New Brunswick — Authority: 425
  lbrb is one of the best known Neurodiversity sites in the blogosphere. The site fully embraces the social model nonsense of the ND ideology to which its authors subscribe. The lbrb authors, the "team", never fail to put their ideological spin on any autism issue, cause, treatment or cure that surfaces. And they can ...

• The Contrarian/Sentient Developments Crossover: Progress Report

  
  The Contrarian — Authority: 132
  As previously mentioned, I’ve been guest-blogging over at Sentient Developments throughout October. While not quite as geektastic as a Marvel/DC universe crossover, it’s still pretty damn exciting. Well, for me, anyway — SentDev is one of my fave sites on the interwebs, and unlike much of the stuff you find ...

• Autism: One Forest -- Many Paths: Why the Asperger Parent Falls Silent

  
  Autismville — Authority:
  My friend Christine wrote this and I begged her to let me share it. Read it ... really. **** Frank was a no-nonsense archetypal North Jersey Italian guy. I took to him pretty quickly because the accent and the attitude were pretty reminiscent of my mother’s family. I appreciated that Frank spoke fluent ...

• Are all autistics introverted?

  
  Spectrum Siblings — Authority: 112
  I received an interesting search query this week, and I found it quite odd because I was just explaining this notion to a friend a few days before. This search term read: “Can you have an autistic extrovert?” Autistic individuals, like their neurotypical counterparts, come with the full range of personality ...

• Autism Community?‎ ASAN Is Anti Autism Cure and Nothing More

  
  Facing Autism in New Brunswick — Authority: 425
  ASAN does NOT represent the autism "community". At best it represents some persons with High Functioning Autism and Aspergers who view autism disorders not as medical disorders but as a social club for persons at the high functioning end of the spectrum and those people without autism spectrum disorders who, for ...
