Im gonna increasr the autisms by at least three
Im bad with kids but the other job im training for is with adults 30 minutes by car away so i cant afford that gas to stay there forever
No, I work with kids and some of the are neurodiverse. We do try our best (some of us anyway) but that doesn’t make it easy. It’d he nice to have someone point out a behavior someone finds DiFfIcUlT like eye contact or stimming is just very common expected behavior for a kid with autism and there’s nothing wrong with them just because of that.
If you’re worried you’ll somehow make them more autistic - well, I’m assuming you’re joking but I’ll say it anyway. No, autism isn’t contagious, you can’t make then “more autistic.” To be honest, they’d probably get a kick out of someone that might understand them and their thought processes better than the average neurotypical person. You have nothing to be ashamed of and nothing to report.
Im beaming autism into their brains wirh my incredible posting powers

I think you meant neurotypical.
But this is totally me and my nephew! My god, I could geek out over magnets and dinosaurs with that kid for days. I’ve almost got him convinced that the Paw Patrol are cops at best and class traitors at worst. And I guess I’m also teaching him my speech and language coping strategies that I had to learn the hard way, back before autism was even recognized as a real thing.
I’m so pissed off by my autocorrect. Keeps insisting I meant “if” when I type “of” and its way too assertive
I’m a teacher. Definitely not a conflict of interest. Feeling empathy for a group is very far from financially profiting off of a position of responsibility.
Thinking about the autistic teacher I saw on TikTok who brought joy to an autistic student by flapping hands with them a recess. Go ahead.
I work with autistic and adhd people as an audhd. It’s definitely a strenght, especially when it comes to communication. Much less misunderstandings and far better outcomes as a result.
I went to the interview today and i dont know if i can put on the whole ckapping and going yaaaaay for the real young’ns. I’ll try tho because 20 hrs with benefits is great because when i try to work 40 i turn into an orb
If it isn’s some policy that you have to do, I’d say be yourself with the kids and just skip the clapping and yaaaay as neurotypical nonsense. Probably will be received better by those that matter the most, the kids.
Is it, like, a policy of the workplace to overreact like this with clapping and yaay? I have an autistic kid and she would start crying if you do that shit around her lol.
This is cool and good and the more autistic you make them the cooler and gooder it is
You should do this
