    So I assume you’ve dealt with people with autism in China, to be able to give such a response?

    Educationally there is no support. Curriculum is the same for everyone at every level with no support or accommodations, so autistic children are often washed out or treated as failures.

    Such absolutist phrasing with no regard for the existence of special education schools or programs.

    I’ve had my eyes on you for a while now, I’m beginning to believe that you’re just pulling shit out of your ass on multiple occasions, prove me wrong.

      Right away sire, let me bring it to you all on a sliver plater. You are the arbiter of truth after all, despite pulling random points out of their own ass despite being blatantly wrong.

      Maybe do a single second of research before running and accusing people? I did the reading because I have autistic family members that I was considering moving to China with. Have you dealt with autistic people in China?

      Special education schools in China are tailored towards the blind and deaf. There are extremely few with the resources to adequately assist nuerodivergent children.

      Special education schools are mainly tailored toward students with physical disabilities rather than those with cognitive and neurological conditions. Children with autism still face frequent rejections from both public and special education schools.

      Due to the imitations of special education schools in China for autistic students, and the difficulty of autistic children integrating into public schools, many families seek autism intervention from private organizations. Because these treatments are not state-run, they cost substantial amount of money. Around 30% of parents reported that they cannot sustain this amounted of financial burden for a prolonged period.

      So yes, programs exist, but they cost exorbitant amounts of money. Do you think the average Chinese family can afford paying $1,500 a month for a child to attend these private programs? I’d say it’s very absolutist except for the very wealthy.

      “I’ve had my eyes on you”. Fuck off
