Autism, Life and Learning

Here is my second blog of the day. This time I want to talks about something that is making me tick, just ever so slightly.

To be more precise she is another Aspie like me.   As you should know I mainly argue things on here. So you can guess what I has been making me tick.    For once it isn’t putting someone with Asperger’s in a ‘dangerous environment’. It more I haven’t really seen someone with “severe autism” or “harmful autistic traits” in any show or really in entertainment at all.

YAY!🎉 Anyway I know that pretty much everyone that gets taught that autistics don't like change. Whlist this is kinda true it is also worng as most just need time to adjust that could be seconds to months, but everyone else need time to adjust but they can adjust on the fly as it were we can't or we can but not well...😞.
