Is giving children with autism a blue pail for Halloween discrimination or is it a kindness? We talk about how labels and accommodation can be viewed as either a tool of exclusion or inclusion, depending on the action and the intent. We talk about Cerebral Palsy and the Paralympics, the discrimination of low expectations and, most importantly, human kindness. Happy Halloween to those celebrating it!<br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

The Rainbow Dissection: The Influence of History

We want this podcast to be a community of people sharing their stories about being gay, being parents, having autism, raising kids with autism and, in our case, all of the above.In this world, it's easy to feel alone and feel like no one understands you. Sometimes all you need to hear is someone else complain about their kids or struggle with anxiety and suddenly, you're not so alone. That's what we want to offer.We're not here to give advice. We may be a GP and a high school teacher between us, but that doesn't mean we know everything. That's not the point. We're not here to judge or teach. We are just here to be with you and hopefully, you'll hang out with us too.Please hang out with us. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
