Message to the Autism Mommas
You don't speak for autistic people. If you try to speak over autistic people, you are just showing you are an awful mom.
Do not support autism speaks, they don't want what's best for your kid and if you think they do, clearly you don't either. Support actual autistic people, not an organization that wants us dead.
Not every autistic person is the same, but we do understand how to help you help your kid to some extent.
When autistic people have a general consensus on something that is harmful, do not argue with them. When autistic people try telling you "Hey, that's not the best thing" Do not argue with them. Arguing when autistic people are just trying to help will just get everyone more heated and is showing that you don't actually care about your child and that you actually don't want what's best for them.
Do not reveal the secrets that your child tells you. Do not say things that are overly embarrassing or personal to others. This is how you lose their trust and make them want to cut your out of their life as soon as they can.
