Freud's ideas are frankly laughable. Bettelheim drew his conclusions from observing very traumatised children who had been imprisoned in concentration camps and assumed autistic children must have experienced similar trauma because of some of their behaviours. <br /><br />BTW, Hilde Bruch did not believe Kanner when he suggested that autism is neurological. What a surprise. Not.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
