Autism misinformation continues to cause unnecessary guilt, fear, and stigma—not just for parents, but for autistic adults as well. From outdated theories like “refrigerator mothers” to modern claims linking Tylenol use during pregnancy to autism, harmful myths have persisted for decades. These misconceptions reinforce stigma, fuel misunderstanding, and make it harder for autistic adults to be accepted and understood in their communities.
Join me on September 25th, 2025 at 6 pm CT for a livestream where we’ll separate fact from fiction and explore the real story of autism: a neurodevelopmental difference that is genetic, lifelong, and part of human diversity.
During this livestream, we’ll cover:
- ❌ The Tylenol-autism claim and why it’s not supported by science
- ❌ Other debunked myths, including vaccines, diet, and parental blame
- ❌ How misinformation affects autistic adults, families, and communities
- ✅ Ways to support autistic people and challenge harmful myths
Let’s stop the myths and celebrate autism with confidence, clarity, and understanding—for autistic adults, parents, and the wider community.
