In yesterday's commentary Autism Speaks Joins Drake And J.Cole In Insulting 40% With Autism AND Intellectual Disability I criticized Autism Speaks for stigmatizing persons with Intellectual Disability, particularly the 40% of persons on the autism spectrum with ID, the 40% that Autism Speaks seldom acknowledges in its promotions and literature.
I received the comment, posted above, from BLOOM - Parenting Kids With Disabilities editor Louise Kinross that expresses my issue with Autism Speaks' approach to intellectually disabled members of the autism spectrum better than I did. It would do Autism Speaks and the autism community it purports to represent a great service to give serious consideration to Louise's comment.
