Could it be that as a society we have been trying to fit square pegs into round holes? Perhaps we should return to admitting that there are those born with clear limitations and stop pretending otherwise. Might take a lot of pressure off of the families.
Yup,earlier this morning I saw an article in which Great called her Asperger’s a “superpower”. It may well be that superior intelligence often goes along with Asperger’s (it certainly does with *my* niece and nephew) but it takes a whole lot more than raw intelligence to make your way in an advanced,and complex,society like ours.
