I find the language in this whole piece disturbing. Describing #ADHD and #Autism as ‘problems’ and ‘disorders’ feels very much like othering and dismissing a clinical diagnosis….which has often been a long time coming with a lack of understanding all around up to that point.

Proscribing ‘interventions’ over ‘accommodations’ implies breaking and rebuilding rather than supporting.

The implication is that children with a diagnosis are somehow cheating the system.
