A take on autism “levels” that’s starting a lot of conversations.

By Eli Mercer on

This post argues that calling autism “fluid” can erase the experiences of families living with profound, level 3 autism. It highlights that while people with level 1 or 2 may have good and bad days, profound autism is permanent and not something someone “shifts” out of.

What do you think? Are autism levels misunderstood or oversimplified in online spaces?
