Depends on how you look at it. I look at it in the sense that we are all different and should be accepted for who we are. Unfortunately autistic people experience immense discrimination. If you're asking how badly it affects development and basic functioning then the spectrum for that is so broad that you really need to talk to a doctor to know the true extremity of the condition.
