Well nobody beats Autism. The headline of this article drives me crazy and its very long, but the article does give a glimpse into what as parents we go through and how every child with Autism is very different. What works for some children doesnt for others. ABA was very successful for Mateo, in helping him communicate and progress. This article also goes into how many Autism Advocates feel which is really where I stand. Helping people to communicate better, teaching life skills, helping them to understand the world, but not changing the person they are to better fit into society. “Autism isn’t an illness in need of a cure,” “We don’t think it is possible to fundamentally rewire our brains to change the way we think and interact with the world,” Ne’eman says. “But even if such a thing were possible, we don’t think it would be ethical.” nytimes/2014/08/03/magazine/the-kids-who-beat-autism.html?_r=1
