What Alexis said about "using relationship" resonates. That's particularly bad if there is a betrayal of developing healing trust and instead there is only manipulation or acting. It is not intrinsically rewarding for humans to be on the other end of this. It does not bring the benefits of relationship. It make it more difficult for someone to trust in the future. Being good at social manipulation is highly valued and rewarded in our society - probably in most human societies. Then we have a riot and depose or dispose of the leader. We suck. But we can definitely do better if we have the will to make major changes.
Every single word you said is true. I have been teaching these ideas for years (a drop in the ocean). I am so glad to find you here speaking from the person-perspective. I would like to share this with students if that’s ok. Thank you for sharing.
6:10 I know for a fact that a lot of professionals believed, and still believe, that autistic people like being restrained, and segregated in dark, quiet rooms and that it "makes us feel safe and protected". I hope I don't need to say that this a complete myth, no idea where it comes from, but it seems to be one of those pieces of "received wisdom" that's passed down in the care community informally.
