[@clairebaron1419]

Loved this video. Has been very imformative for me as a support worker looking at working in this profession. 😊😊😊

I found this video really interesting and helpful as a support worker.

I love this brilliant video. Half-wish we could move to Camden. Those two who voted to dislike it must be Americans or non-UK residents who feel hurt/insulted because they do not understand that in UK (as in this video), learning 'disabilities' mean 'intellectual' disabilities & not learning difficulties such as [they may have like] dyslexia or dyscalculia. In USA, they call learning difficulties - learning disabilities. A case of conflicting terminology.

[@beatamrylko2235]

Learning disability or difficulty? The difficulty is something with the right help it overcomes. Certainly not the help from Tavi or CAMS, INVENTORS TERMS PRE-AUTISM, SEVERE AUTISM, ATTACHMENT 2THERAPY"( just theory.) AND OTHER BS.

Brilliant

I wish people in the UK with intellectual disabilities were not referred to as people with learning disabilities. I really hate it. It is an insult to be people who really have learning disabilities.

Yes it causes so much confusion. I clicked on this video thinking they were going to talk about specific learning disabilities such as Dyslexia, ADHD etc.

[@bonniejohnson760]

Yes. It was very misleading. We didn't hear the clients point of view but only the staff's. I have a learning disability to but it does not effect my intelligence. You're right. The term " intellectual " disabilities is not only insulting but it is stigmatizing.

Why the chromosome diagrams? Thought they were psychiatrists not eugenicists, or in genetics.

[@beatamrylko2235]

Psychiatrists and psychologists are theorist., not supported by sience

[@therespectedlex9794]

@@beatamrylko2235 I suppose we agree on that.

[@bonniejohnson760]

I heard all the professionals point of view but not the clients. It doesn't seem fair that I only heard from staff and not clients. There are two sides of each story and the story isn't complete until you hear the other side.
