Let's face it a lot of it is people gaming the system for DLA

Bang on, you start giving folk money for it, everyone has it. I used to work in DLA and know the exact requirements to get it. There's a lot of genuine cases but sadly a lot of parents want the pound signs that come with it. DLA means carers allowance and disability premiums on people's benefits.

I see lots of kids and 100% they have lots of issues but there's others that are taking the piss. To get low mobility the child needs support and help to get around outside and wouldn't be deemed fit to be out without adult supervision yet I've seen these same kids out and about causing mayhem in their communities.

I also know when I worked there, there was an article on BBC about how the goalposts in autism diagnosis had been changed and resulted in a huge increase in cases. This was before COVID too btw so it didn't give these wains autism.

Proper renaissance man. Leonardo wouldn't be a patch on him.

I don't know, he obviously knows everything but is crap at painting.

Like you know, B+ grade for art in Leaving Cert. One of only two boys in a class of 26.  Girls normally excellent at art, boys crap, opposite to math where I also excelled.

David I wouldn't waste time with this  nutjob.

I'm always willing to hear the other side of any rational and reasonable debate but in this instance I feel you may be correct.

You have well proven you don't, even with an autistic kid which is insanity at it's best. You get false comfort amongst the herd of non critical thinkers.

[Seamus]

One thing I must say about J70, he is by far and away the best poster on the the GAA thread. Is knowledgeable, doesn't come across as one bit biased, a good winner and loser. We would get on great in the GAA realm. Such a shame that on most other topics he lives and seems permanently stuck in a false reality. The name calling he goes on with at times is way beneath him.

[Wildweasel74]

Well Seamus he probably fed up with your crap, just like everybody else on here! U don't seem to comment on any other topic threads, just this one. Nobody wants 1 person totally overtaking a thread, we had the same problem on the American politics one.

A forum intended for the discussion of GAA topic's in the main, Other sports, Deaths, General news and a bit of banter will never be a forum for the Topics on this thread.

We are not enough well informed on both side of the argument for either side to convince the other. Anyway our minds are made up and no anonymous poster on a GAA Forum is going to chance that.

There aren't 2 equal sides to this story though. There is one side with the proper scientific arguments in favour of vaccines and another side of pseudoscientists and crackpots who have come up with all sorts of conspiracy nonsense about vaccines.

An equivalent would be the tobacco industry for years muddying the waters around the scientific evidence for the extreme damage of cigarettes. Or in more recent times the oil and gas companies trying to muddy the waters re all the evidence around climate change.

For once I agree with you, there aren't two sides to this debate there are many, many more sides than that.

I have to say I find it amazing how you have through factually inaccurate generalisations managed to diagnosis my child and I. I really wish I could live in your fantasy world.

After the recent posts, it's fairly obvious Seamus is someone's alter ego with too much time on their hands. They've overegged their playing stupid.

I'm actually disappointed.

It's your tunnel visioned brainwashed mind that I have diagnosed, nothing to do with your kid

Profile stats prove me correct. 18 years averaging 33 posts per year, most of that in the earlier years when I only posted on the GAA thread. In your case over 200 posts per year, go get a life and get off those jabs.

So kids born without vaccines have got autism because?

I've suspected this for a while. A certain poster with lots of political views, no gaa posts and a tendency to get banned and come back with a different user name springs to mind.
