🧵1/2 @GMB - which ones of the below counts as skiving? 1. My child didn't go to school because she is depressed and locked herself in her room for days and won't talk to anyone. 2. My child has been self harming and talking about suicide
If only the problem was attendance. If only the real issue was just that children aren’t at school, and so they can’t learn. For then the solution would be so simple. (illustration @_MissingTheMark) 1/
If we spent as much time teaching people to interact with autistic children as we do teaching autistic children to interact with others, the world would be a better place #AutismAcceptanceDay
Ableist things people say: You can’t be autistic because……. GO! 👇🏻 #actuallyautistic #autistic #Neurodivergent

I feel sorry for all the kids who do not know what it was to sit down in your school uniform and watch Newsround, Blue Peter & then Neighbours every weeknight! #NeighboursFinale
Be very careful if you send your tablet or phone back to @VodafoneUK for repair! Sent our child’s back and was told it’s out of warranty because it has this damage! We even went into the shop to send it so it wasn’t damaged. It was immaculate when it was sent.
Dear @Clubhouse If we have “belled” a room and the organizer has changed the time - can you please send us a notification in app to let us know? Sincerely, Listeners who arrange their calendars based on rooms 💜
A topic we discussed yesterday on @Clubhouse Neurodivergent folk: who says things then completely panics & overthinks that you have been rude and ruminate on it for weeks?!! #Autism #ActuallyAutistic #ADHD #Neurodivergent
Christmas overwhelmed feeling is very real! I’m exhausted!
Could two followers please copy and re-post this tweet? I'm trying to demonstrate that someone is always there, especially at this time of year. Call 0800 689 5652 (National Suicide Prevention Helpline UK). Just two. Any two. Copy, not retweet. Let’s all look out for each other.
Absolutely delighted to be part of an #ActuallyAutistic team @AskAutistics that has convinced @Clubhouse to no longer promote usage of the 🧩 symbol. This is fantastic, everyone involved, love and strength forevermore. We can, do and will continue to change the narrative #Autism
Today Autistic voices were heard! Today we made a change! Today is the start of our movement with incredible #ActuallyAutistic adults and advocates. @BelindaMoscoso1 @MathsAkbar @brycejustweeted @Agsgets @ExistentialAut1 @NINE_On_Can @KarenAnnTimm #Autism #ActuallyAutistic

To all the people mad at the fact @NaughtyBoyMusic is still in #ImACeleb #naughtyboy
@OlderthanElvis I completely agree. Talk to people, not about them! I hate this assumption we need someone non-disabled (or in this case, not autistic) to 'explain'. #ourfamilyandautism
Good lord. When people think they are saying a good thing with comments like, “autism doesn’t hold back my child” or “autism doesn’t define my child”. Missing the point entirely, and just perpetuating stigma. #ourfamilyandautism #ActuallyAutistic
ABA - what you mean is Autistic Conversion Therapy and institutionalized abuse and torture of Autistic people.
