Autism isn’t caused by medicine.
Claims that paracetamol in pregnancy causes autism are false.
We do not need to prevent or cure autism.
Autistic people are valuable.
Great guidance here from @contactfamilies.bsky.social for anyone who is worried or concerned with the news today.

Alternatively, we can learn from #autistic and other #neurodivergent authored theory & #EdRes, and use #neuro-affirming approaches.
Less danger of #schooldistress, #masking and #burnout.
