  It’s a satire article if that makes you feel better

    Yes, it’s satire, but the thing with satire is that it ridicules something real.

    It’s like that “toddlers and tiaras” crap, at that point you’re way past what any sane person considers reasonable and you’re just abusing your kid and their right to privacy for your own ends - be it social recognition, or sympathy, or outright profit. It’s disgusting.

      Ok, I didn’t read the article but I’d guess it’s satire about parents exploiting their (in this case autistic) children for money. So it ridicules exactly what you describe as disgusting, hopefully to point out this injustice. So I don’t understand what you’re saying.

        Yep yep, we’re agreeing, sorry if I made it sound like we’re not.
