Compassion has to be learned. Those on the Autism spectrum, however, have a little harder time learning it. While normies can often just pick things up, it's a conscious effort for those that are Left of Normal.
Does that struggle give the LoN a pass to not have to show as much compassion? If they fail to learn it, do they deserve less compassion coming to them?
How about siblings, should parents favor the Left of Normal child over the normie children? Should siblings be required to show compassion to each other regardless of where they fall on the spectrum?
All these questions and more are discussed in this episode!
