    Depressed About Still Being a Virgin

    coming to this a bit late, but there is a speaker I follow who is also on the spectrum and she talks about autism and sexuality. the first talk of hers I saw: good person to follow or learn from if it still is a bother for you.

    CEX and the UK Sale of Goods Act

    from the few game studios and platforms i have been able to talk to, its honestly down to "they didn't realize", which, TBH is a rather poor excuse. I make a similar argument about captions and the Forza Horizon 4 series in this video they spent a lot of time getting the cars and the behaviors...

    CEX and the UK Sale of Goods Act

    while i am not aware of things like this a little side note is, sadly this is something i have been trying to fight for a while, things like that are accessibility issues but there is nothing legally compelling video game makers to make sure that their games meet accessibility guidelines accept...

    Autism risk may increase if child's mother has high DDT exposure, study finds

    right and as I stated, those are my thoughts (besides point 1) for any news source. not this is not a valid study (thought the study its self is behind a pay wall interestingly enough.) I'm also not against the idea that something like this is not possible, I'f ANYTHING i think it shows that...

    Hello,mom of son with autism

    sorry i did not mean to say i was doubting your specialist, but so often i find children who do not get the chance because a specialist said so, and then because the parents loved and did all they could for the child, it turned out alright. but on the flip side other specialists are also to...

    Autism risk may increase if child's mother has high DDT exposure, study finds

    1. Scare tactic. fox news only uses Autism for fear and to hatemonger. don't use them for reliable info on autism. what else you use them for does not matter to me and is none of may business. 2. look at the wording of the article. heres a randomly pulled line... "To do the study, Brown...

    Hello,mom of son with autism

    Welcome @amomof3 One thing i love hearing from parents is "how amazed the specialist are by the progress the child/children make" when there is a grim outlook. It says a lot about the parents who are raising them and what it must take and be sacrificed for that child/them. I am not a parent my...

    An Aspie on the search for his own answer to life, universe and everything...

    Sloth, I was adopted from birth, so it very easily could of been that that was not the case. my Birth mom is a ENT but my adoptive mom was a Speech and Language Pathologist and my Adoptive father ran a half way house for men. That different outlook on life is partly a contributor to that mindset...

    thanks Tree! Liking the image as text for the reply shows a lot of personality in that. however makes it hard for screen readers to use since there is no alt text so hopefully none who is blind wants to read it. thanks Tom. I am so far but the day is young and i have now 50+ tabs of things on...
