WHOA.
Not a rant from me, not even pearl clutching, but, rather, an "educational" request:
Autism Spectrum Disorders are (a) not a mental impairment (b) not a mental illness. Autism is a brain-based difference. I have been fortunate enough to treat people on the spectrum since God was a baby, so kinda know a little bit more than the average bear.
With the incidence of ASD being 1 in 110 or 1 in 150 (depending on who you cite), there are, in all likelihood, GC members or family members affected by ASD.
