Chelation Therapy is so much worse than blood from one arm into the other. It’s very harmful and only used because the thing it’s used to treat – heavy metal poisoning – is much worse.
And the hacks who keep using hyperbaric oxygen chambers on kids for bullshit reasons keep burning kids to death.

I agree totally, but…
… apparently he believes that there’s research that shows that autism and heavy metal poisoning are linked… He even sent off for a kit that tested the poor kid’s urine / poop and it came back positive so off he went to an european country to do it…

I know that’s their whole shtick. It’s so bad. Everyone has heavy metals in them, of course.
Man I hate that people like that guy have kids who have no say in their treatment.

Yeah I’m not one to jump go getting child services involved, but they need to know what’s going on. These children are in danger

Why are you living with this creature?

Sounds like he needs to be reported to some agency for child abuse.

Report this fucker to social services before he kills one or both of his kids.

This is either bait, or you need to get the police involved for the kids and find somewhere safer/saner to live yourself.

Autism has a genetic component, and what you describe (specifically his pattern of behavior, not his beliefs) makes it sound like he may be undiagnosed autistic. Not a doctor or psychologist, but it’s an amusing thought nonetheless that he may be responsible for his children’s autism

Autism doesn’t cause insanity and abuse.

Hence, the qualification that I’m referring specifically to his pattern of behavior, not beliefs. More specifically, I’m referring to his obsessive, rigid hyperfixations. The abuse is entirely on him.
Interestingly, I have a family member who is almost certainly undiagnosed autistic, and he acts very similarly to what is described in the OP, even down to the “I know better than the experts” rhetoric. The vast majority of autistic people aren’t like that, but it is interesting for me to note the similarities between these 2 people.

Hyperbaric chambers aren’t harmful afaik, but never heard of kids using them. They promote stem cells and regeneration

Please report him
If he is in a caring position it’s only a matter of time before he hurts someone or worse because he “knows better”
