This is good, but how about neurotypical people's failure to relate to autistic people too?

Neurotypical researches do not care about it. They just want to keep labeling us. Autistic researchers are doing this kind of studies 😊

I love my Autistic Brain. I really do. 🌱🌳🌲🌹The only issue I have with it is regarding social things, but these are things I don;t like and people. People who are not honest and direct are time consuming, boring and exhausting. It's more interesting to speak with a Magpie. And safer as they are not deceptive creatures. One in fifty people are Autistic. So we are not all that uncommon. If Autistic people were aware and looking for Autism in the larger population, we would have found us a long, long time ago. What about the Russian woman that identified Autism before Asperger? You're a female scientist. I would have thought that you would speak about her work. I honestly would never want to have a non Autistic brain. I struggle due to my ADHD far more than any social issues around being Autistic. Knowing has made a massive difference. In another space and time, all of my characteristics would have been a serious advantage. Autistic people speaking to one another are more yielding in conversation and generally very patient with each other in conversation. It's just that we don't want to slip into small talk and frankly when people are generally unheard, they will talk a blue streak once they get going. We need to sturdy what NTs say, because of their disparaging way of communicating. It;s easy to misunderstand people who do not communicate in a clear concise way.

I guess one way to learn what you need to do (or refrain from doing) to support autistic people would be to *ask* autistics what they need. Just because some autistic people are non-verbal and/or have difficulties communicating with neurotypical/allistics doesn't mean there are not ways to communicate with them. Have an open mind, try to be clear with your intentions and ask questions. Second is, while certain aspects of daily life/ society can be challenging for a lot of autistic people, they not all the same. If you met one autistic person you met ONE autistic person. the five-year-old autistic son of your co-worker won't present the same way as an adult autistic woman in her seventies that lived undiagnosed all her life, because they are different people and have made different experiences, they cope differently with their surroundings. Autism is a really broad thing of different difficulties and strengths and a person can have really high-support need in one aspect of their life and very independent and able in other aspects. Like...if you have a person with hyposensitivity, they are more like to get hurt because they don't notice things that are painful/dangerous but they can still be able to organsise their life in other aspects of their life. A person can also be pretty high functioning in one day and very low-functioning on another (for example short after a melt down or during an autistic Burnout). there are also a lot of co-morbidities like OCD, Eating disorders, Depression, Anxiety, Self Harm or Suicidal Ideation, that are not necessarily "autistic qualities" but they can still very much shorten the life expectation and strongly impact the life quality of many autistic people. You know...people are complex...autistic or not. try communicating with them and find out from them what they need more than about them with other neurotypical folks.

I have just translated carefully intp Spanish three videos by Uta Frith about autism and Theory of mind. However , this channel does not allow contributions. So, Have I wasted my time? Is this information intended just for English speakers? Will you send me a warning if I make a copy of your video in my channel just to be able to add the Spanish subtitles?. The whole issue is quite disappointing. Maybe I never get an answer from you; maybe my subtitles are never "revised" to see in the Spanish translation in suitable.... I tried all the links you have, but found no way of communicating with you. Thank you in advance for your answer.

You are welcome. My subtitles are not in this video. I had to put in my channel to add the Spanish transalation. Allí es donde está la traducción del vídeo al castellano, no aquí, no en este canal, que no permite añadir subtítulos en nuestro idioma y solo está disponible para quien entiende inglés.

@@susanbeever5708 The problem is that when these "experts" make so many generalizations about us, it's very damaging. People tend to believe that people like this know our condition better than we do ourselves. And when we try to Advocate on our own behalf and try to educate and ask for accommodations that we need in order to survive and function, it often becomes a fight and we can't get the help and consideration we need because we get told that we don't know what we are talking about because "experts" who are not Autistic themselves come to different conclusions than we do as to the reasons why we do what we do. We know exactly why we do what we do and we know exactly what we need and don't need. And if people would actually ask us they might realize that these "experts" are not always right. And some therapists believe they have turned Autism around by getting Autistic people to change their behaviors. None of those therapists seem to be around decades later when those behavioral modifications are now causing Autistic people to commit suicide and have all kinds of mental health consequences. If these "experts" are not actively learning from the older Autistic adult community, they can be causing potentially life threatening issues in the long term. So before you decide that she is right, take a good long look at what happens to Autistic kids who went through behavioral therapies decades later. Sometimes the outcome is good, but for many many people, it can be devastating and it can even be deadly for some.

I agree. She starts out with "It is a brain disorder that makes it almost impossible for the person to interact with others", followed minutes later with "you could see that each individual is very, very different"... and then right back to those with severely debilitating symptoms, and anyone with a "modern" diagnosis of autism /Asperger's encountering someone with Uta's outlook is in for a very difficult time. ... And some of that difficulty in joining groups can be due to the qualities of the groups they are attempting to join. If a pro basketball player wants to join a regional championship swim team, they may find they have some difficulties in being fully accepted.

@@susanbeever5708 Indeed. It would also seem that several commentators here do not understand "scientific method". I am autistic - diagnosed much later in life because we didn't know in the 1960s and 70s what we know now. I shake my head in sorrow at drivel many autism advocates speak.

Perhaps because some people like to call themselves autistic, to be on the side of the spectrum closer to a personality issue than to illness, and they do not recognize themselves as the description of intellectually disabled people who are yet typical in this disorder.

About half of her stuff on causes, treatment, lifelong prognosis, and personal development is heavily contested. And the focus on genetic causes, rather than making room for ASD in our society, is offensive to some.

Because it is not a disorder. It's a different wiring of the brain. We could say that it is a disorder to be neurotipical....would NTs like that?
