Great post. If someone gave me a magic wand and said I could “cure” my daughter today, I wouldn’t do it, because she’d no longer be the girl I love, she’d be someone different.
I see multiple problems with that approach. One is, should you have the right to decide she shouldn’t have “the cure” if one existed? What if she would want to be cured?
That’s really up to the person. I know I wouldn’t want to be cured if the option was available, and that’s because…
You missed the my point here. I was asking Frink this. We were talking about him deciding for his daughter instead of her deciding for herself.
Another is, why wouldn’t she be the girl you love?
I think it influences my personality a lot. Being “cured” would be taking a part of me out, it would figuratively make me a different person.
No offense, but are you saying you have autism?
