WOW, I would have never thought I would see a discussion about autism here.
I agree with AutieAB (yes I am nodding)
I can see why there would be more autistic diaper wearers then normal, but like was said there would be no link though.
Diapers are a sensory thing for me, like would be for most people I am guessing, but autism is known to bring sensory processing problems, so for me wearing a diaper is probably more sensory stimulating then it would be for most. (great for after meltdown )
I was not out of diapers till a really late age, like 8-9 years old, and I have always worn at night. So it is no wonder why I like wearing them. I am 25, mostly non verbal, live with my parents, and will probably be moving to group home or something similar for people like me. Don't know if I will be able to wear whenever I want like I can now, maybe I will be able to sneak it. I know if people find out they will want to do away with behavior just because I am autie. Anyway, dont know any autie ab/dl's so nice to know there are others around
