@pantransautie @actuallyautistic I hate when people do this. I always tell parents, “It’s their diagnosis. They have a right to know it and they’re never too young.”

@dramypsyd @pantransautie @actuallyautistic my son was diagnosed at aged 6 and we never delayed telling him, but it’s taken time for him to have an understanding (which I’m not sure he fully does yet).

All Cats have Aspergers updated now the only Aspergers are legacy diagnoses.

Yep, the author is NT I think, but she tries to keep it updated. It's a very positive book, it doesn't frame autism as a disability.
