There are enough people taking advantage of autism.
First of all there is a definitional problem and the inclination that parents have to hope for autism as an alternative to the very negative diagnosis–mental retardation.
And it goes downhill from there. Hate to bust anybody’s balloon, but autism used to be called mental retardation and the number of MR diagnoses has declined with the increase in the number of autistic diagnoses.
Nothing that I can do to change the reality.
