I just chided a woman on instagram. She is apparently not autistic, and her post was not informative. It was hawking worry stones, calling them fidget toys instead, hashtagging it, and dropping mention about autism. I asked sensitively that she not use us for her sales. But her response was curt, and ended with “Period.”

Again, the post was in no way informative. Just selling her product.
Cue the parents adding their unsolicited 2…
