This information is so true and important!! Thank you, Thom.

AND, everyone on the Autism Spectrum: having ADD, ADHD, dyslexia, Asperger's Syndrome, and inherited autism, not vaccine-induced autism, are here with the built-in brain difference to live in the moment, connected to intuitive knowledge, thinking and acting outside the box, Not being farmers, but innovators.

ADD needs to stand for Attention Differently Directed and Not Attention Deficit Disorder. We have over time (since Bacon and Descartes said only thinking was the way to know reality), we have lost the compass of our whole brain, both right( hunters)and left (farmers) hemispheres, the left only for linear, sequential thoughts. Thus, like a boat turning in one direction, our world is going in circles, rather than straight.

Substack: Our Wise Intelligences

Education needs to be discovery/experience-based while young, as Montessori/Waldorf/Piaget knew.

Project Based Learning, PBL, best for all learners, using both right and left brain intelligences, as they were meant to be used, to create a world of connection and good.

ALL on the "autism spectrum," need to be released from the stigma of being misunderstood, mistreated, and disempowered.

Thank you, again, Thom.
