    Can’t speak to everything, but I remember reading about special schools and workplaces for (I think) autistic people. Places where the person’s individual strengths and sensitivities are respected and where the people are able to really thrive. It could have been something like a restaurant and a workshop with caretakers and maybe even parents present.

    I’ll try to remember to find the article when I have time.

      China is often demonized for treating their mentally ill harshly (in the West), but from reading your post, China seems way more progressive than a society like America.

      I know a friend in China who is Autistic and trans.

      They say things are improving.
