Now Viewing: Would your rather be retarded or autistic?

Depends on the severity. Like if I was just somewhat disadvantaged at subjects in school that would be better than mild Asperger’s but I would rather have severe autism than Down’s syndrome.

I have a tough enough challenge with my autism, given that not a lot of people I've met outside a selected few thinks we're all the same or think we're stupid, incompetent, incapable of higher thinking, etc. and the government ain't any better, And it legitimately hurts that people prefer making assumptions instead of getting to know us for who we are as individuals.
lol jokes aside ultimately I would rather be very smart and stressed all the time then dumb and blissfully ignorant, If you're on the spectrum then you have an advantage in life that'll allow you to do something great with the world, Push that advantage and you'll have a legacy for both you and your kids
Im already autistic but i made mistakes in my life that a autistic person wouldn't make , to be honest i wish there was a redo button but currently there's not.
