I see nothing wrong with the family's statements. The word "disorder" is used by the general population to regardless if we find it political incorrect. So I'm not going to tar and feather them for using it.
I would happily tar and feather them for implying that their own daughter was better off dead because Asperger's was "ravaging her brain."
Aspergers is a spectrum condition we do not know what this lady was going through. "Ravaging her brain" may have been a fair characteration. I do not think
her parents implied she was better off dead. If people think I'm going to join the
bandwagon and question this family in their time of mourning, thats not going to
happen.
