Another awful article on the overdx of ld and autism

Submitted by an LD OnLine user on

Ye gods, yet another ill-researched full of cliques article like this:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/3102137.stm

I’m surprised at this one comign from the bbc, but yes here goes:
the children don’t get any exercise anymore due to worry about violence so that they are hyper in the classroom. I don’t exactly know how this causes pseudo autism. Except that you know autistic children never have any eye contact or empathy. Yikes! I just need to get this off my chest. Sorry!

OTOH, today I got this link. Neat article. I also read Luke’s book, and found it pretty remarkable and also dead on from my own experience at least. This is a 14 year old AS kid that wrote a book called “Freaks, geeks, and
Asperger Syndrome”. Very neat.

Oh yeah the link, this was on BBC, I hope they will have it cross the pond:
