So I've been going thru more books about this. Now those by Lynn Kern Koegel & Claire LaZebnik with the University of California.

I think always the stuff on Dating, Relationships, and Sex, is the most absurd. It is a good place to start if one wants to see how much nonsense it all is.

Though not specifically talking about Autism / Aspergers, Alice Miller wrote of a "Narcissistic Wound". I think that is not strong enough of a language. It makes it sound like it could be accidental. Really, it is Vicious Objectification. So the child ends up being the designate patient.

Maybe the child would have been a bit different anyway. Who knows. Who cares. Everyone is unique.

I think the Autism / Asperger's label is just describing what many middle class parents have always done to their children. It is just that now they have the White Coats and the school system helping them, and they have labels.

I read from these books, one after another, and this is always there, the parents making the child into an object of contempt. And then this idea that the child is not able to express empathy or understand non-verbal communications.

Sami Timimi explains that those with Autism are extremely empathetic, the most empathetic. They just aren't likely to try and use communications to manipulate people, so they don't really fit in with middle class values.

Likewise, they are very sensitive to all sorts of communications. It is just that in order to survive they continually have to defy the antagonisms directed against them.

I read the dating stuff, and the stuff they describe would never work, because the parents are still running the kid's life. Any chance at a life beyond childhood has been nullified. The only remedy is to get the kid away from the parents, and then rebuke the parents by seizing all property and assets. Make the parents pay for what they have done. Make the child right and the parents wrong. Very simple really. Or just let me handle it. I will hold the parents accountable in ways no one will ever forget.

Peter Breggin says that the main autism advocacy groups are simply defensive orgs the parents support in order to protect themselves from criticism, to make them right.

More on Male Survivor, always in Health and Wellbeing

It used to be very hard to get a post up there. My stuff would get deleted or edited. They expected everybody to speak Recovery. They threatened me with expulsion.

So I contacted some of the White Coats who attend their conferences. I was basically threatening them with negative publicity. Now they finally seem to have mellowed out. So they are leaving my posts alone, but I am staying in Health and Wellbeing.
