Tylenol maker Kenvue denies the connection allegedly made in the report, which is expected to be published by the Department of Health and Human Services this month.
To be on the spectrum is one thing, but low functioning autistic is just soul crushing for people to deal with. I’ve seen some siblings struggle just because their family was pretty much screwed trying to raise a low functioning autistic child. I think I’ve interacted with two such people in many years, so it’s not particularly common compared to the larger population on the spectrum.
It’s one reason I don’t like autism as a spectrum, as there’s a world of difference that doesn’t seem right to cast one net over.
Sigh… here goes: because then they could “fix” it.
They don’t want to fix it, they want to blame the victims for “causing it themselves”.

Not so gentle Reminder that republicans don’t help or “fix” anyone period.
Uhhhhh… budddddy. Hopefully this didn’t happen to you. If it did you’re parents were kinda dicks 😔
Luckily not to me, but I know of a child that has autism where the parents were blamed by some related anti-vax parents for vaccinating their child.
i don’t need fixing. I just need support.
