Gregory's Server15 years or so ago I could quite often be heard to proclaim shit like "its just bad parenting!" or "its a con by big pharma" blah blah blah. God I would go back and slap myself if I could. I now have a diagnosis myself (diag at 42, now 48) and 2 autistic children (one adult, one teen). My grandson also being referred.
I wish it didnt take personal experience to open my eyes. Sadly, many people still touting that BS who never will.
