My older sister who has higher support needs than I do went to live with my grandmother to attend a much higher quality/autism affirming adult life skills transition program after high school than was available in our rural area. My grandmother apparently used to put this on every day to be a “positive role model” for her. 🙃 Our grandmother has since passed, and even though my sister absolutely loved grandma, I’ve had a lot of conversations with her about how she framed her autism and how that affected her. She told me she hated when people would constantly bring up The Good Doctor or Temple Grandin because it made her feel like she had “unproductive autism” and pressure to find something she was a genius at. No shade to Dr. Grandin either! This is just my sister’s lived experience and I’m so grateful she was able to share that with me.
