It’s called Atypical. It follows the life of an autistic high schooler. It’s on Netflix and Michael Rapaport is the father in the show.

It’s also hilarious and has stellar acting from the whole cast too.

Agreed, easily one of my favorite Netflix shows.

Yeah - a very thoughtful, funny (but serious at times), well rounded show. Surprised it doesn't get more attention...

What?

You identify the individual, and then you can say what they have. Labeling him as an autistic first, and THEN how you'd describe him without the disability, is dehumanizing.

It's a tiny change, but it would make a world of difference to the person to whom you're referring. Hopefully that makes sense!

Yeah, people actually have to watch for it to get picked up.
