America’s Most Popular Autism Therapy May Not Work — and May Seriously Harm Patients’ Mental Health (link is to tumblr post discussing the article, which links to the article)
I will never listen to anybody who shills for aba. Maybe if someone autistic who underwent it themselves did I'd listen, but even then I'd be highly suspicious.
I was always suspicious of it, never had a conversation with anyone who provided the therapy that could tell me what it was or any theory of the practice. And the places that provide it always look like some startup venture around here. Come to find out, there's like no regulation on credentialing providers - they'll hire high school grads and pay them for shit... Death to America.
