Some people are significantly challenged to understand their world and struggle to make sense of their emotions leading to major self injurious behaviors. It’s true of the neurotypicals and it is true for individuals with autism. Still, it is disheartening that as we approach 2019 we still find articles like this are even necessary. Let’s hope with all the other advances we can convince everyone that the use of electric shocks are cruel and we can do better…. much better. https://www.disabilityscoop.com/…/fda-finalize-ban-s…/25822/
