    Tackling bullying could help reduce depression in autistic teens

    Even the most otherwise mediocre schools can be rid of bullying, if they really want to. But serial bullying is not restrained to social context of formal education or employment. Know more at: The CliqueBusters

    Tackling bullying could help reduce depression in autistic teens

    abbey normal raise an important point: Serial bullying unpunished persists and escalates. And the vulnerable will always be targeted. And the vulnerable will always be targeted. But what to do in social context whereof there is a gap in authority, or the authorities are fully complicit? This is...

    Tackling bullying could help reduce depression in autistic teens

    This is a matter of real concern for us all, that there is not enough being done to combat serial bullying and all the harm that it does. But more can and should be done. The CliqueBusters breaks taboo and offers novel solutions.

    Tackling bullying could help reduce depression in autistic teens

    I respectfully suggest that the most constructive course will be in simply accepting the post by Gritches as a usage of personal anecdote towards expression of dissent, without trying to read in anything more sinister or hostile. After all, everybody knows that Aspies can't or won't delve into...

    If you had the chance to meet Hans Asperger, would you?

    Do you really believe that the causes of Aspie disorganization are so entirely strategic and circumstantial rather than howsoever pathological and inherent to the condition?

    If you had the chance to meet Hans Asperger, would you?

    I'm not here to further stress you in your travails and tribulations, Rob! That would never be my intention. I fear that I have come to dread the worst in raising that particular question of mine, from prior experience on Aspie forums. But I still think that it is important.

    If you had the chance to meet Hans Asperger, would you?

    Actually, my question is tremendously unpopular. As the old saying goes: "The dancer blames the floor" sometimes more justifiably than others. Which brings us to Asperger's as a condition rather than a pathology, and Aspies as the blameless innocent victims of a flawed evil and profoundly...

    If you had the chance to meet Hans Asperger, would you?

    It has long been observed how gifted students amongst their own true gifted peers, suddenly and mysteriously no longer require the great blessed boon of socialization! But is such the case for Aspies? No, alas it is not.

    If you had the chance to meet Hans Asperger, would you?

    Thanks, I might add dolphin encounters to the ignored Psychodynamics cited in 'The Behaviorist Menace', though I do recall, also, claims of a case where the movie 'Dirty Dancing' effected dramatic cure for an Autistic little girl who apparently really liked the film.

    If you had the chance to meet Hans Asperger, would you?

    Thanks. Understanding of the scope of Epigenetics and neuroplasticity, has advanced significantly. There is even the case of identical twins, one autistic and the other not. Even so, underrating the psychodynamic impact of environment and experience, still seems sheer suborn failure of imagination.
