Although there are well-meaning people in this world, too many open their mouths before knowing ALL the facts as well as both sides -- or more -- of an issue.

The ad campaign muddies the truth about autism even more and unfairly burdens the children...*sigh*

You're welcome!

As far as the anonymous post, I hesitate to suggest any of those steps before the source of the information and the information itself are verified. Anonymous, if you'd identify yourself and the reasons for your concerns, I'd appreciate it! K.

NEXT STEPS - they are not hearing us

They have not responded to our requests to pull the campaign and it sounds like we are really emboldening Harold Koplewicz and his boss, Robert Grossman, appears to be letting Koplewicz see the campaign through. I found some contacts that are over both of their heads and we need to promote a major emailing, writing and phone calling campaign to

I agree, Kristen!

Foresam, thanks so much for stopping by and posting your comment. I'm not a parent of a child with special needs, am new to current autism debates, and understand how complex they are. I also believe all children with medical and/or psychological conditions deserve the best treatments out there. While I agree widespread understanding is an important goal, I remain

I think the ad campaign is great. It shows how horrible autism is which could lead to better treatments for our kids.
