ABA therapy for autism
Hi Luna, If you haven't done so already, you may want to start by reading WP:RS. The blogs that you cited are not considered to be reliable sources, not even the one written by the well-known activist/scientist Michelle Dawson. The claim that ABA causes extreme distress or PTSD requires high-quality secondary sources such as review articles in scientific/medical journals. If you scan through the archived Talk page of the ABA article, you'll see a discussion of the issue (linked here: ). The issues you raise may be more appropriate for the article "Autism rights movement," which already has a short passage on the ethics of ABA. Even for that article, you would need to find, at a minimum, articles in major newspapers in which autistic individuals report being abused and scarred by their ABA experiences. Don't use blogs as sources. CatPath (talk) 01:01, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
