jenny mccarthy criticizes autism moms
I'm mobile and can't make it clickable...if someone could provide a working link or copy and paste the article that would be great.
Your thoughts on McCarthy's statements.
Haha my hubby is laughing his ass off at ur post. He hates her too thinks she needs to just shut up and stop telling others what to do with their kids.
Quoting momtoscott:Okay, so maybe you ladies can help me out. My pity party is scheduled for Saturday, and I can't decide whether my napkins should be blue or gray. Also, should I be drinking chardonnay or merlot while I sob on the couch? Curtains--open or closed, to add to the gloom? Sadly, our weather forecast is for sun, can you believe it? How I am going to feel properly sorry for myself on a beautiful sunny day?
I F-ing hate Jenny McCarthy.
Thanks! Off to find the fine China...

First I think a lot of families had a difficult time with the diagnoses. I know I cried, but I certainly didn't throw a pity party and I didn't have family or friends and whoever falling all over me. But once I read my bible and realized my boy can be healed, I was fine. I think she is a little nutty. Anytime you got to show your naked body in a magazine, claim it was so tasteful, just to get some attention is ridiculous. You are a momma. Have some respect. Plus she's to old to be doing that stuff, time to grow up. But you know what I live in los angeles, and these people in hollywood are just different.
that's funny. i didn't hear of her until she found an alternative solution for the dx. seems to me that was pretty nice of her to share. do you think that she helped no one? it is very true that some people love having sick children. if that applies to you, then change and if it doesn't, then she wasn't talking about you.

This woman goes around feeding off her own self-pity for having a "defective" child who needs to be cured. She needs to get a life & the first way to do it is to stop calling attention to the fact that her son has autism. She's the one with the problem, plain & simple. She needs to be cured, not the ones on the spectrum. Wish she'd just crawl back into the crack she crawled out of!
if she did say these things-she must have been high or ? she is wayyyyyy offf base and so wrong , maybe SHE felt that way i have never met another mom that feels as she said-if she did
I'm also not at the opposite end of the spectrum where I believe autism isn't something that needs help or cured. I feel that's a defense mechanism. I don't need to be told that my kids are normal or that I'm normal or tell myself that to feel better about myself or them.
I think she shouldn't have made a blanket statement but I'm with her in the attitude that it's ridiculous that parents wouldn't do everything they can to help their childs body function at full capacity. I think lots of parents get stuck in the diagnosis phase and don't move past it but not all of them.
What Jenny talks about is real stuff and can truly help lots of people not just autistic people. Our society fills their bodies with garbage and chemicals daily and thinks it's totally normal. Our bodies function much better with healthy preservative free foods.

Assuming that the journalism is accurate, I am quite offended. However, I have seen too many articles that are way off base and inaccurate, twisting words to get a lot of attention and notice. So, I'd have to see the original comment in context in the form of a video to make my final determination
What kind of context do you need, really? I'm not sure how what she said is OK in ANY context.
