Don't be Divided Over Deffinitions

Now we have the non-agreed upon definition conflict again. Xe's condition is probably not exactly the same as yours or your child's Xe, is not lying. Xe meets the criteria for DSM 5 Autism. Please don't fall for the divisive definitions. We all have sore nerves, over the way we have been slandered and targeted with fiduciary abuse. Expect defensive behavior, from our allies. Don't get sucked into and argument and forgive even the worst insults. People are rightfully hurt and upset "personal attacks" are nothing more than meaningless blind defence. Do not take personal attacks personally.

Be open minded about the way things are defined. Cure can have good connotations, but try to explicitly define what needs to be cured and recognize the bodily autonomy of all individuals and their right to make choices, you may not find right.

It is important that you have faith in human intentions. The justification for this is evolutionary. Many of us have seen the worst of humanity. Without faith in human intentions, conflicts will hinder the progress many of us desperately need.
