Autistic people can have any career they want, we're as capable as neurotypical people.
In some places Autistic people may not be able to serve I military or police force, although do bare in mind many Autistic people are not diagnosed so may join without knowing or without disclosing they're Autistic.
It is impossible to say how many African-American people are Autistic. Generally speaking Autism diagnosis isn't broken down into race, but also African-American people are grossly under-diagnosed for Autism. A big part of this is to do with access to diagnosis, if a person cannot afford diagnosis or cannot afford higher insurance rates Autistic people have to pay then they will not seek diagnosis and thus cannot be recorded in Autism statistics.
Autistic people are 'cleverer' than people who use the word 'cleverer' that is certain. In theory Autistic people are more intelligent than Neurotypical people, but there is no reliable measure of intelligence or way to say for sure which group of people is more intelligent.
I think we were always considered people but many people did (and a considerable amount still do) see us as lesser beings because we were different to them or lacked social skills. I think even in an autistic society some will treat typical people as lesser because I know some autistic people (mainly on autistic networks) who can't stand typical people because of cultural differences(although our cultural differences are considered strange because we look like everyone from the culture we were born into)
Autistic people (identity-first language) live as long as Neurotypical people, Autism doesn't impact on health in such a way that could shorten someone's life. In theory Autistic people have a slightly shorter lifespan because some Autistic people have problems identifying harmful behaviour - such as children who wander near water - also due to prejudice Autistic people may be more likely to be unemployed or be denied equal medical care which impacts on life.
Yes he did he went after anyone who wasn't "Perfect" he also went after people with disabilities or people with birth defects. (such as people who are small)
Absolutely any career that a neurotypical people can have.
A person cannot become Autistic, people are born Autistic. Not talking is not necessarily a sign of Autism either, many autistic people are non-verbal but not all and there are other reasons for people not talking.
Employers do hire Autistic people, however normally when they do they don't realize that the person is Autistic. There is a lot of prejudice against Autistic people so even in areas where there are discrimination laws in place Autistic people often cannot find work, Autistic people normally have to hide their Autism from employers to avoid facing discrimination.
Firstly, within the Autism community identity-first language is used: it's Autistic people, not people with Autism - remember to work with Autistic people you need to learn from their community first.There are many careers you could go into working with Autistic people, you need to identify what area you'd like to work in and then start off looking online for more information. From there talk to careers advisers and look at getting in touch with local organizations in that area of work.
There is absolutely nothing that an autistic person cannot do. Autism is a neurological difference, it can be considered a disability as it can limit people in some ways, but it doesn't stop them from doing anything.
Autism Spectrum Disorder is a neurological condition, autistic people are born autistic - we do not know why people are autistic.
If your child is Autistic then they will always be Autistic, that cannot change as Autism is part of their neurology and who they are. I'm not entirely sure why 'looks normal' is a reason to think his Autism is in question, Autistic people look no different to neurotypical people. Please, if your child is Autistic you need to learn about Autism.
No, you cannot get rid of your autism.If you're Autistic then your brain is autistic - it effects every single aspect of who you are, it is who you are as a person and that cannot be changed. You are born Autistic and continue to be Autistic throughout your entire life, which is absolutely fine. There is nothing wrong with being Autistic.
No, of course not - autism is a neurological condition, a person is born autistic...a persons brain cannot completely change just because someone doesn't listen to them.
Firstly, it's offensive for you to imply that autistic people are abnormal - autistic people are different to neurotypical people, not less than. A person is born autistic, it is not something that happens to 'normal' people or something that you turn into, you are always autistic.
I can safely say that 100% of autistic children are born autistic. Autism is a neurological difference so comes about in the womb during the second trimester of pregnancy and is largely considered to come down to genetic factors. All autistic people are born autistic, you cannot develop autism.
No, not all Autistic children are savants. Many Savants are Autistic, but most Autistic people are as normal as Neurotypical people with no particularly special talents.
