@johnnyprofane1 I think this is perfect just as it is, and entirely accurate. I consider both #ABA and #CBT the #LGBTQ equivalent of #ConversionTherapy.

If we accept that #nuerodifference involves physiology, then what exactly are we supposed to be fixing? We are not broken. At best we need to learn to cope with #toxic indifference of #allistic society.

@johnnyprofane1 There is so much about the normative #allistic social gauntlet I just don’t get. Sometimes I wonder if this perplexing outcome of expressed #individuality and obvious surrender to #populism is merely a continuation of that same game that happens in our teens, and they just never got over it.

I suppose I didn’t consider if my confusion over #political behavior might also be part of my social #dissonance. Very possibly!

@lkanies @hmm_cook It may be worth clarifying what we’re motivating our #neurodifferent kids FOR?

We maintain #routines for daily living needs… getting ready school, homework, bath and bed time.

For #interests, it’s best to let them self-pilot. We can introduce them to new things and see what sticks. But are #allistic kids so malleable that it works differently for them? If anything, we worked to maintain multiple interests.
