I’m hesitant to call it a disability, but it certainly is a somethingability.
Autism spectrum disorder can present in a really wide variety of ways. Sometimes it's severely disabling, sometimes it's a mixed bag of strengths, weaknesses and quirks.
when my disability makes me unable to do something other people can do easily
When i see people easily do the things which i cannot because of my disability.
When i see other people struggle with something that comes easily to me because of the same disability
Likes other says it's a spectrum.
Think about how a leg issue can be different;
No matter what it is, it's still a disability, just are some are more of a struggle than others.
Autism has a spectrum too, the problem is somewhere in the brain so we can't see it like we can see a cane or missing leg. Things like asthma or color blindness are disabilities too, but we can't see those either.
I think what they're trying to point out that ppl with autism get really good and other, non normal, things. So it's a negative in some ways but positive in others
like it's still a disability, but like there's nuance in it
it's a neurodivergence, literally being weird differently
sometimes it's mostly good, sometimes it's mostly bad, sometimes it's balanced
For my kiddos it is a disability. 😕 They have amazing talents, but he world just isn't built for them.
If they're up for it, put them in an improv class for kids with autism, this helps immensely. You could reach out to Giant Steps or Second City. I might be slightly biased because I teach improv but it's a good way for kids on the spectrum to practice social situations and to learn how to deal with sudden changes.
That sounds pretty awesome. My kids are a bit on the young side and don't have a great grasp of English so that might be a little bit challenging for them. Maybe when they're older...
