In the mentally disabled world of Autism, with its frequent posse of acronyms (OCD, ODD, ADD, etc), you watch your child not have much a childhood as his world is consumed with therapy, camps, doctors, management, medicines, meltdowns, set backs, and a frightening lack of friends, or personal accomplishments.
Anyone who says autism is not a mental illness is a self-serving liar, Christopher Hahn.
From Matt Margolis at PJ Media: Fox News Cuts Ties With Michael Knowles Over Greta Thunberg Comments
"A spokesman for Fox News blasted Knowles in a statement to Mediaite: “The comment made by Michael Knowles who was a guest on The Story tonight was disgraceful – we apologize to Greta Thunberg and to our viewers.” Fox News also told The Hollywood Reporter that the network has “no plans” to book Knowles in the future. This is not an official ban, however, but still pretty gutless."Once again, at issue is the Left exploiting a mentally ill girl for political agenda, not Michael Knowles pointing out her self-confessed mental disorders. Listen for yourself:
Her mother wrote a book about her mental issues. There is nothing shameful about living with mental disorders.— Michael Knowles (@michaeljknowles) September 24, 2019
What is shameful is exploiting a child—particularly a child with mental disorders—to advance your political agenda. https://t.co/oNR6iw7mRF
Margolis continues:
"Any single one of these would be described as a mental illness. Calling them such is not attacking a child, but acknowledging the fact that this girl is being thrust into the spotlight despite her numerous problems. While may on the left cheer this, because Thunberg is the latest human shield they've found to champion their causes, many on the right see it for what it is: child exploitation and abuse. That Fox News was so quick to cut ties with Knowles for acknowledging this fact is just bizarre. Seemingly healthy adults often have trouble dealing with fame, and Thunberg is likely to experience emotional side effects to her notoriety."Yet, as Insty frequently points out, "You may not be interested in the Gleichschaltung, but the Gleichschaltung is interested in you." Even at Fox News.
PS: Thank you to those who asked about my son. He is now a grown man, living on his own with a little help from friends & family. He is achieving life goals that many of us celebrated in our tweens and teens. We're very proud of him.
He has written several books, available on Amazon. If interested, there's a graphic to your right advertising his 1st novel, 'Crimson Minds.' Click on over and buy a copy.
