Children Quote by Thomas D. Taylor

“Because “cold” mothers exhibit traits (possibly as the result of genetic makeup) similar to those displayed by autistic children, it was at one time thought that distant mothers produced autistic children, but too many “warm” and “loving” mothers produced autistic children for this theory to…” quote by Thomas D.

“Be that as it may, some of those that would no longer be diagnosed “autistic” today were diagnosed on the autism spectrum and accepted as autistic then, and while no one can say with certainty if members of this select population of people were among the troublemakers on the board, one must acknowledge that it is a possibility, as many…

“Whom a person in the autism community is friends with is very important. Alliances are forged against people who have certain friends, and these alliances may be very strong and very powerful. This is why some bullies have managed to stay in the autism community for more than a decade. These “allies” who may have either been brainwashed, or who…

“It seems as though autism is being portrayed in literature less as a diagnosis, and more as a minority lifestyle. Sometimes it is even portrayed as a culture or cultural imperative. Much of what is written by “autistics” is actually being written by “self diagnosed” autistics, and no matter who is doing the writing (autistic author or self-diagnosed author), plots,…

“Recently, Temple Grandin's mother, Eustacia Cutler, wrote and article that tried to explain why some autistic men seem to have a sexual preoccupation with children and child pornography. It was an article that needn't have been written if no such preoccupation existed, or if it existed on a level equal with that of men in the rest of society, else…

“Hypersensitivities occur when sensitivities are strongly heightened, many times uncomfortably so. Hypo-sensitivities occur when there is a lesser reaction to a sensation than one would expect, or else a delay in the reaction between the stimulus and the response. Given that many people cannot imagine what an autistic's sensory processing capabilities look like, it might be wise to give autistics…

“It has happened that a group of autistics, who were considered radical by many, attempted to petition the United Nations to recognize autistics as a minority group, but to date, the UN has ignored them. Had the UN designated autistics as a minority, it might have given autistics the ability to respond to bullying and teasing with hate crime suits,…

“To call oneself a journalist when one has no established qualifications is “bad”, but to tack the “autistic” qualifier onto title is worse in my opinion, and potentially more misleading. Assuming the “autistic journalist” actually has autism and is not self-diagnosed, why should the fact that someone has autism make them qualified to write about autism and bill themselves as…
