But if you really think they're drinking the urine of a million ants, forget it. :D :p

Not really. I have a problem with the negative discussion because I find it mostly (not all) completely unwarranted.

Of course her autism will come up, it's going to affect hugely her entire experience. Criticising her for everything is ridiculous as she literally cannot do right for doing wrong.

Have an opinion on her duties in camp, at least it's based on something we've seen.

Accusing her of rigging when she does a trial based on nothing and criticising her if she quits a trial or is excluded for medical reasons just seems completely contradictory and mean-spirited.

Then when she does a trial she quits at the drop of a hat and we can't pass comment on that because it's 'mean spirited'.....ok then :laugh:

Anne does struggle a bit and I do understand some frustration with her being ruled out of tasks I suppose but the fact people know and simply do not care to understand how her autism is effecting her...just terribly sad.

There's several academic studies into the fact that autistic people can have a lot of problems with obesity from childhood as they tend to have such rigid eating habits, so more than likely yes.
I learnt that from Google. Very simple. Try it yourself next time.
