i like nice words
This thing makes absolutely no sense to me. Since I am so bad at broad expression interpretation, I have to break down individual features, but this little guy is all kinds of chaotic.

It has nothing to do with autism, and most autistic people don't consider autism a disability at all

I mean, he could also be horrified because he doesn't want a random journalist giving him an armchair diagnosis based on a brief meeting and pontificating about it for a whole article. That would be extremely reasonable

I don't think it's controversial to say that the prevalence, and not just the diagnosis, of allergies has increased, for reasons we don't fully understand. Ymmv but I don't see any reason both couldn't be true for autism.

There's tons of data. Overview but feel free to google; the fact that it's happening really isn't controversial, the investigation and debate are just about the reasons for the rise. The increase is definitely not driven by "kid who had an epipen on hand so lived to adulthood." If a kid ate a peanut butter sandwich or got stung by a bee and stopped breathing in 1970, that wouldn't have been a medical mystery to them, it would have been documented -- it just hardly ever happened.

He’s 6. I get the issue if it’s a 13-year-old who’s fully able to cut class and smoke weed behind the school, but how is refusal even an option for a 6-year-old? I would never have gone if my parents just let me say I didn’t wanna. By all means figure out why he doesn’t like school and how to address it, but unless you find out he’s being horrifically bullied or something, he has to go to school
