The definition of autism has been stretched to the point that it doesn’t mean much anymore and easily catches the “spastic geek” into the definition.

“The definition of autism has been stretched to the point that it doesn’t mean much anymore and easily catches the “spastic geek” into the definition.”

And you’ve seen this happen?
Can you give specific examples - that you’ve observed - where a child was diagnosed and should not have been?

And what is a “spastic geek” anyway? in your opinion?
