I feel like it's probably worse than this. It should start with "I read about this thing called 'choking to death'".
Or better yet, take out "choking to death" (which can happen) and insert some made-up bullshit like "choking so hard your eyeballs pop out".
But they are not afraid of children dying, that's totally fine. They're afraid their kids might become "weird". Because that is how they see autism, as being weird.
And as everybody knows weird is literally worse than death.
One thing that I think causes a big divide in perceptions of autism is that most people perceive it almost exclusively from one side of the spectrum or the other.
Around 1 in 30 kids will have a little more difficulty adapting to society... It's good to recognize their needs and support their growth.
No, wanting to prevent/treat/manage a profound and debilitating disease isn't genocide.
I actually bothers me that parents hate there kids that much.
Can you just be happy with who they are?
Always conform, self must be denied in favor of the manufactured self
"You know, darling, it's so much more important to look good than to be weird."
