    While Autism does seem to be a thing. I too see this.

    Our neighbors talked non fucking stop about how their kid was autistic this and that over and over. They didnt send her to Kindergarten because of it.
    On the advice of someone within their family they sent her to 1st grade. What do you know she was cured...it was a miracle.
    Turns out she just needed some normal social interaction with children her age, and not shut in by her parents.

    Unfortunately Autism has become a catch all for awkward and normal kids and the ones that really need help get lumped all together with kids that just need some direction.

    Seems like this guy needed some help.

    This right here id why no one should respond to you, you're willfully ignorant on the subject. This poster has a habit of playing dumb or trying to play devils advocate to invoke anger in others.

    At my house he started is shit, Then he got his ass whiped. I never gave him his meds my sister gave me for him. It took 2 days of him acting up and after a 2nd ass whiping guess what? Perfectly normal kid. What a suprise? The kid is so smart he even told me ( Remember this is a 5 year old ) that he just acted that way so he could get what he wanted.

    That kid is now 23 years old and is a top grad from Yale University. Go figure. He allways tells people his uncle ( Me ) taught him respect.

    Before some idiot starts, I am not saying autism is all fake but i would say that alot of kids learn at a young age how to abuse the title. I have mild autism and i woulkd be the 1st to admit that i abused the fuck out that shit at school and the workplace.
    Probably because his form of Autism isn't as bad or potent. It's different with each kid.

    well you made a rather big blanket statement i can't really interpret that your talking about the far end of the spectrum if you your self don't really imply it.

    @Tsugunai

    Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder that impairs social skills, not intelligence. It's also on a spectrum, I have Aspergers which is classified as being high-functioning on the spectrum.

    Famous people who have autism include Dan Aykroyd, Tim Burton and Dan Harmon. People who displayed behaviors associated with autism include Mozart, Einstein, Darwin and Jefferson.

    Even @Connal may have it.

    There's no logic to this topic's stabbing. He simply did as he did because he has autism and there are parents or guardians that think they can keep it under control without serious external aid. Well, they're wrong, and this proves it time and time again.
    tons of people commit crimes of passion with no real good motive with out having any mental illnesses.

    and you do know there a tons and tons of people on the far end of the spectrum who live there whole life's without incidents like this right?

    Autism is not a disease either, you can't in any way contract it like the common-cold or HIV/AIDS, nor is it something you can die from.

    That said, this is a tragedy, hopefully the kid will turn out alright. Lot's of this kind of shit tends to happen because the parent(s) are abusive... which comes as a result of frustration/anger for not being able to "cure" their son/daughter and as a result gives up on actually trying to fucking communicate.
    Not entirely, seeing as our life expectancy is 5-10 years shorter than a "Neurotypical" person, and up to 15-20 years if paired with a learning disability.

    Mind backing that shit up with a source? I bet it's a "correlation != causation" conclusion.

    No, we all see it. Some of us are trying to educate this guy, but he quite often refuses to acknowledge any information and just spews his own uninformed opinions, and quite honestly, gives off an ubermenchen vibe.

    They don't treat the autism itself, just certain symptoms.
    Antipsychotics?!

    I'm sure that's what the cold broader scope of the world would want judging from what you read and hear, but I'm not insane.

    I do think instead of the bullshit we put up with now by trying to fit autistic kids into lite programs or more commonly into normal schools, simply send them to a re-evaluating asylum or something similar divorced from society, and then try from there.

    Nothing wrong with that proposal, is there. There's intensive stuff like that for homosexuality, which makes absolutely no sense to me because that's not a mental illness.
