Disclaimer: Since recording this, Lacy has found new information on the Charity she advised people to donate to (https://autisticadvocacy.org/), on reflection and more research into this charity, Lacy has withdrawn her comment of support. Please do your own research and make a donation to the charity of your own choosing.

The content of this video is Lacy's opinion, it shows how she feels about how Autistic people are mostly portrayed in society. The lack of understanding of how Autistic people can really make a difference to our society if given the chance.

She explains her dislike of most charities that state they support Autism. For various reasons have made her feel and others like her feel, they need to be fixed or even eradicated with Genetic research and new prenatal testing now being researched.

This video is a little off track from the normal content here on MA, but it is such an important message to get out there, so we are putting it on both channels. As many of you already know Lacy is autistic and feel very strongly about keeping people up to date with what is going on out there in the real world.

In this video, Lacy talks about being Autistic, some of the controversies around some charities. The Month of April is all about Autism, so we hope you find this video informative. Thanks for watching.

Christina and Lacy
