As someone who is #ActuallyAutistic functioning labels are harmful to autistics, as those who are classed as "high functioning" to alltisics, can also have the traits of those with "severe" autism
@@anubisai in the autistic community we prefer "high care needs" or "low care needs", this is why you should also be listing to autistic people themselves, as they are the only ones who know what it's like to be autistic!
I’m more concerned this young man is being treated as a puppet since this is a form of facilitated communication, a method that doesn’t work and isn’t a form of augmentative and alternative communication.
Just let him frickin type - stop holding the keyboard in the air. This is just Facilitated Communication. He's not even looking when he's pointing. If he can type, put the keyboard down and walk away.
This dad is doing an amazing job - to get to this level of communication takes hundreds of hours of painstaking work and patience…. for both the tutor and the pupil. If you don’t like the video - go watch something else and let those of us who are endeavouring to help our children/ grandson in our case - get on with the job! - ok?
I see you freak everywhere discrediting autistic typing, are these lovely people able to speak through words spelling getting you out of your abusive jobs aka aba huh ?😅
He does a great job. Smart boy with a great dad.

No - when you are learning pseudoscience then you are NOT allowing him to learn from people who can help with tried and true methods. @@bobwishart8780
