Hi Everyone,
Just saw this article about an Australian couple outraged after their autistic son is shackled to a hospital bed for FOURTEEN days
Yet again the 'system' and heath care workers have no clue about what is Autism and how it affect people in different ways. It seem like we're going backwards and soon enough they'll be using ECT or worse to try and 'cure' us.
Hope you all can help support this couple by trying to get the OZ government to look into this case.
Regards

Not surprising in a world where many are ignorant, and autistic's are viewed as less than human. D
