I’m writing a dissertation on “integrating” autistic people in a school setting and was wondering if anyone wanted to pitch in like what would’ve helped you learn better in school? What accommodations could have been made? What could’ve helped you stay in a “regular” classroom
Thanks!
(Ex. Fidgets in the classroom, sensory room, better understanding of ASD)

For all reports of bullying to be taken seriously instead of blown off as tattle tale crybaby stuff.

They told me to “ignore them” and they would leave me alone….no. Only moving to another state stopped the torment.

And also I was never picked as a partner for group assignments because everyone went with their friends (and I had none) so I failed a bottle rocket project in middle school because I was stuck with a team that didn’t want to do it.

Not much more to add. The notes on this post ring so so true.
