Parents are encouraged not to use words like “severe,” “profound,” or even “Level 3” to describe our child’s autism
yeah, i wonder why. what a fucking nightmare this person is, i feel bad for her daughter. i like pokemon, i’m not literally a pokemon. when we say this shit has levels to it, i don’t think ranking and numbering them is what anyone meant.
Maybe, just maybe, laypeople shouldn’t use the same clinical and/or medicalized language used by professionals who know what the hell they’re talking about to describe their own children.
Same energy as the parents I was talking to a few months ago saying they have a “male son.” Oh okay, I thought this was a parent-teacher conference, but apparently I’m speaking to a couple zoologists.

makes me wonder what it would mean to have a “female son”
pretty sure i’ve heard boomers say that about having a daughter into sports and fixing old cars.
