What the absolute hell???

I could literally rage about this attitude..

The blatant #Ableism

The blatant #Antisemitism

Also the idea that it’s somehow #Offensive for an #AutisticProfessional to dare to actually CHARGE for Work THEY DO!!

The assumption that someone would Work For Free
😡🤬😡🤬

Photo of Dr Lovaas with the quote from him “You see, you start pretty much from scratch when you work with an autistic child. You have a person in the physical sense - they have hair, a nose and a mouth - but they are not people in the psychological sense. One way to look at the job of helping autistic kids is to see it as a matter of constructing a person. You have the raw materials, but you have to build the person." Ivar Lovaas, a founder of ABA www.the-art-of-autism.com
