"The concept of unmasking can oftentimes (in my experience) create somewhat of a secondary identity crisis. You unconsciously consider yourself not neurotypical enough, but also not Autistic enough." emergentdivergence.com/2023/…

"Fabricated or induced illness" (FII) is a sinister term which, like "parental alienation", is routinely used to undermine mothers, and fathers, who battle for healthcare and educational support for their children. It is the new term for Munchausen's Syndrome by Proxy.

During cross examination vs. my negligent lawyer, I was asked if she “put a gun to my head” to bully me into consenting to sign an order wiping out court ordered child and spousal support. I replied: “No, she said they would take my child from me, that is gun to the head.”

There are so many flaws and disappoints that unfold when your other children are diagnosed years later. The issues I experience with my daughter is more traumatic, lack of understanding, denied services and loneliness. The famous words from the panel! Don't meet criteria #autism

Parents have witnessed the #OFSTEDeffect on their children for 15yrs. Children felt their welcoming schools shift towards process, policies, targets, standards, accountability. Focus on attainment, behaviour, attendance became toxic v quickly.
School leaders planning legal challenge against Ofsted on behalf of sector. Some inspectors “just nasty”.One quizzed 2 nervous SEN girls about Romans. “One started shaking, one couldn’t say anything. She said this was evidence teaching wasn’t working.” theguardian.com/education/20…

I will have a read of this later as seems very relevant to FII where I have heard some shocking quotes from witnesses in the family court e.g. "It is unrealistic to expect an autistic person to parent well in the long term". That was from a social worker.

Where school policies around attendance refuse to authorise absence for a sore throat (one of early symptoms of Strep A), parents can often go against their better judgment & send their child in to school rather than face an unauthorised absence. itv.com/news/london/2022-12-… 1/

60% of autistic adults met criteria for a chronic illness, higher in autistic women and older autistics. Sensory sensitivity and anxiety both predicted chronic illness, and they fully linked the relationship between autistic traits & chronic illness. Free molecularautism.biomedcentra….
