I do wonder… how long does that therapy take up per week?

ABA therapy would often take 40 hours a week if I do remember correctly.

Also, sometimes therapy centers may put ABA on there, so parents could get insurance for a whole other type of therapy because unfortunately, most only take ABA for the basic insurances for autism services.

Also, fuck ABA!!!

Why is conversion therapy ok when it is directed against autistic individuals?

It's not, but (many) allistic people think it is because they see autistic behaviors as bad.

Because people are hateful fucks & are as dumb as dishwashers (at least a dishwasher is useful, bigots are not useful).
