It is very important for people to know that Autism and Asperger Syndrome are WAY different conditions and almost completely do not compare to each other and is like comparing apples and oranges. There is something that I need to be made known to people that is of great importance is that PEOPLE WITH ASPERGER SYNDROME DO NOT BELONG IN FACILITIES THAT ARE DESIGNED FOR AUTISTIC PEOPLE! And the same goes for kids with other autism spectrum disorders as well such as fragile X syndrome, ADHD, ect. Since I have seen documentaries on places for kids with autism that will not tell you this information since they will only tell you want they want you to hear, so this is where you will need learn this information. There are multiple reasons for this that I must let people know about as it of great importance. 1 - People with Autism and Asperger syndrome have VERY different needs and when Aspies are placed in a home for autistic people their needs are not met since those place are geared toward helping autistic kids, not kids with Asperger syndrome. 2 - The rules in those places don't jive with Aspies since they are meant for kids with autism in fact if someone treated an Aspie like an autistic person in a regular setting it would not be allowed and the person who did this would very likely get in big trouble. In fact I know someone who said "that places like these are back in the stoneages!" as openmided people can see that the methods that they use are so outdated and not suitable for modern times. I have added a link that shows that to be true at the bottom of this article. 3 - It is unfair to Aspies to put them in a place that is not set up for them and you just CAN'T expect them to like it as that is very idealistic and those places don't know how to treat Aspies differently from autistic people, which is also completely unfair. 4 - A big misconception that some people have is that since an Aspie may have some autistic tendencies so therefore it is okay to put them with Autistic people, right? WRONG! Someone told me they though this was because a mole and lung cancer are both cancers and since they go to the same place for treatment, well this is a TOTALLY DIFFERENT situation here, this is not a patient going to a hospital for medical treatment for an illness when they wish. This is an Aspie being put in a place and being subject to rules that are not meant for them and people who are very different from them as well. Instead of people looking at the slight similarities between Aspergers and Autism, what people should SURELY see is the MAJOR DIFFERENCES between the two conditions and how they DON'T go well together. 5 - It drives Aspies just crazy! Think about how would YOU feel if you were put into a place when people run around screaming, shouting, flicking their fingers, banging their heads, ect. I don't think that you would like it at all, in fact you would HATE it! You would also be doing everything that you could to get the hell out of there and you would NEVER want to see or visit those horrible places ever again! 6- It DOESN'T help Aspies, it just makes things WORSE! I know people who have been in these places and have felt scarred for life as they always remember their horrible times there. 7 - It deprives people who really do need those places the chance to be there. If an Aspie is put in a place for Autistic people, then it denies someone who may have a severe case of Autism and who really might need that kind of help and treatment the chance of being there. Don't get me wrong - places like that really do help Autistic people as that is what they are geared toward, but they just AREN'T good for Asipies. I would like to point out that people now say ''that we didn't know a lot about Aspergers back then, so we didn't know how it was going to affect them", well NOW that we DO KNOW a lot more about Aspergers and how it just isn't good for them, and yet I have heard that this is still happening to today, well this NEEDS to stop, since we now know better. So if you are a parent and have a child who is an Aspie and some person tells you to put your kid in a place for Autistic kids and they completely incorrectly tell you that it will be good for them, then I would STRONGLY advice NOT to take their advice and you should tell them how wrong they are for even suggesting this! I think that the people who recommend Aspies to those places as well as the social workers and parents who are part of the decision making process who do go there should have trouble sleeping at night as those poor Aspies are going through pure hell because of those ignorant, misinformed, and illinformed people, To see what kind of people who live there and what kind of damage those place have on people watch the movie "After the promise" and "David's mother", so then you will have a better understanding of what those places are like, the people who go there and who are in those places, and the damage that they do. Here is the link that shows what kind of treatment that these places use that just are NOT suitable for Aspies: https://www.autismkey.com/barbaric-school-punishment-of-children-with-autism-still-legal/?fbclid=IwAR1vgrhL6NbXUQRMT-b8egKR1gxktjdgWsJjRKGgXGU91aKP1ozgbYQ_NPs
