A compromise /an experiment
Modern autism has so much going for it lots of it works ,lots of it doesn't. Why not try to duplicate its successfully working past?
Autism's unadmitted to Anthropology typically holds traditional jobs, drives and does life OK so obviously, we have done something correctly even if it was by accident. If some university or Autism Group were to set up an experimental school incorporating our anthropology and the best of the modern stuff -it might work.
A school set up that taught picture thoughts is a most needed addition to Autism. Granted Autism the thought process has never been in print before but, all of us seem to have figured it out. It took us 25-30 years or more of trial and error and autism ignorance to succeed but something has worked. If we present picture thoughts to everyone in the spectrum those that have them as their natural process will be delighted to have their thought process explained to them. Students that don't connect to the Picture thoughts could be schooled in a manor more suitable for them. Picture Thoughts could be taught along with traditional school subjects and at first we all would be pioneers. I bet we would learn just as much from our students as we did teaching them.
Today when new people connect with our anthropology many connect with their picture thought for the first time. Picture Thoughts for and Aspie are like nouns and verbs are for a traditional thinker. Those of us figuring out our Aspie thoughts have already identified milestones in Autism Picture thought development. It seems certain type of thoughts happen before others.
Our school could teach classes on Picture translation ,relating Autism to Social skills. We could teach our students what type of thoughts to use for a specific events. We could incorporate ideas on how to think traditionally to keep up with the real world and to really think autistically (with a brain generated Image) at different times ,allowing for an easier life. Advanced Thought classes could explain Projection thoughts, Picture in Picture thoughts and how to drive a car as well as other fast paced life events.
This is not so much a far fetched idea as it is Autism is simply unknown in traditional circles. No amount of research will work unless the elevator is on the right floor. Search for your car all you want on the wrong floor of a parking garage and never find it, Go Up one floor and it is there to drive away. Autism is in much the same boat It is on the wrong floor of the parking garage and all it needs is a key from it past to open a door and drive away.
