When referring to autism, some people use person-first language (a person with autism), while others prefer identity-first language (an autistic person).
On this episode, we talk to ASHA members and autistic SLPs about their differing language choices, and excerpt a spirited discussion of the issue on the Autism Speaks podcast Autism POVs.
Plus, acclaimed autism book author Barry Prizant returns to the podcast.
