Kevin Leitch is the creator of Left Brain/Right Brain, and a father of a child with autism. He has offered a voice of reason and has reflected on the good the bad  and the ugly related to the science of autism. He has always recognized the fight and has presented thought provoking articles regarding the controversies in the autism community.

Today,Sullivan, writer for LeftBrain/RightBrain wrote about Rethinking Autism . He quoted the woman who artfully counter-appealed to Celebrity Autism. " I am the mother of an autistic boy. I have had enough of the pseudo-science quackery that certain celebrities are pitching to parents of kids with autism. The media is concentrating on the pseudo-science and there needs to be a forum for more tried and tested information. It is virtually impossible for an individual to deliver a counter-message, but I may have found a way with RethinkingAutism.com."

Watch the video, it is riveting. Why? Because point-counterpoint is often a bitter pill, but a just one.
