On this episode, Rose is back for another round! This time, the focus is on Autism Myths!
Are Autism cases on the rise? Do people outgrow Autism? Is there for a cure for Autism? Do vaccines cause Autism? Are there differences in Autism between males and females? Do we prefer to say "Autistic people" or "people with Autism?" Is Autism a form of brain damage? Can Autistic people make friends? Can Autism people express themselves? Is everyone a little bit Autistic?
We love Rose. She is brilliant, articulate, and a ton of fun to hang out with and discuss these topics!
