I’m in the spectrum and ABA therapy has allowed me to live a more or less normal life and, more importantly, a life without a constant flow of prescription drugs.

Which is the actual problem with ABA is that pharmaceutical companies don’t make any money when autistic kids don’t get drugged.

Point well taken. A lot of ABA therapy was so kids would not be on drugs, not just autistic ones.
