I’m a bit tale in blogging about this but as they say “better late than never”!

A few weeks ago on the BBC Health new site an article appeared which claimed “Almost half of adults with autism are afraid to leave the house in fear of facing abuse or harassment, according to a charity.”

Indeed “The National Autistic Society spoke to 1,300 adults on the autistic spectrum and found 37% of those asked had been manipulated to do something they did not want to do”!” You can read all about it here.

Do be honest i found the article a bit confusing and if this is read by anyone in the the National Autistic Society I’d be keen for more detail. That being said i was wondering to what extent these finds reflect the experiences of our readers.

So we would be very grateful if you would consider taking the short poll below.

Many thanks in advance!
