So, #FunctioningLabels are Bullshit. The needs of an #ActuallyAutistic person may be changing frequently and "functioning labels" impact the ability to get the help when needed OR keep people from #independence. Also, if you saw what I need to do to leave the house....
Saw a post: "With high functioning autism, you may have a job. With low functioning autism you may require a checklist every time you leave the house"
...who's gonna tell em about autistics who BOTH have jobs + need lists?
(#ActuallyAutistic ppl deserve better understanding)
1/ I'm labelled level 1 even though I have bad executive dysfunction. I can't work, can't finish projects when I want to, can't clean the house or even motivate myself to get dressed. But I'm considered Level 1 because I can speak. #ADHD #ActuallyAutistic #FunctioningLabels
Where I live #functioningLabels are directly related to intellectual giftedness or intellectual disability.
Why then do people not just say: this student is #ActuallyAutistic and has intellectual disabilities. As such they require xyz accommodations.

"Autism Advocacy" - a resource I made for those wanting to learn about supporting #autistic children through a 𝗽𝗿𝗼-𝗻𝗲𝘂𝗿𝗼𝗱𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝘁𝘆 lens. I discuss #ableism, #functioninglabels & #SLT provision & practices. Contact me/drop your email address if interested!
Another great illustration of how complex and changeable being on the autism spectrum really is.

@JoshThomas87 It took me a while to find the words (and the #spoons!) to formulate a response, but it'd be good for you to think about #LateralAbleism

It seems like research is catching up with what #autistic people have been saying for a long time, functioning labels do not have a place in autistic terminology.

“...'high functioning' is used to describe people diagnosed with autism who have IQs in the normal range, it does not indicate their functional status.”
