sigh ... sometimes parents of autistic children just get to the point where we don't have the energy to be offended by these things anymore.
I do lie awake at night going over everything mistake I could possibly have made with my daughter -- did I wait too long to have her assessed, did I miss key windows of possibility, did I make the wrong decision in mainstreaming her at first, or in sending her to a specialized school later, and on and on and on -- but people who are so clearly just whacking away at misinformed agendas don't make me feel any worse; they don't even figure on my radar any more. I can't be bothered.
Plus why does she think that drugs and "group therapy" are standard parts of a treatment plan for autism? Oh, well, forget it.
