Autism Levels Explained. Why ‘High’ and ‘Low Functioning’ Are Misleading

What if I told you autism isn’t one single experience, it’s a spectrum with three official levels that describe different support needs? And what if I also told you those old terms, “high functioning” and “low functioning,” are actually doing more harm than good? In this video, I break down the three levels of autism, explain where Asperger’s used to fit in, and share what it’s like being Level 2 autistic for both me and my kids. If you’re in Australia, I’ll also explain how these levels affect NDIS funding, and the potential changes that have a lot of families feeling uncertain about the future. 💬 What do you think about the current levels system, does it help, or just create more confusion?
