*makes note on LFNT* Good one! I know quite a few of those.

*grins* I was even thinking of expanding it out to "Elephant", but I thought it might sound too much like an insult.

There is talk of mastodonts quite often, but yes, it would be insulting to the elephant.

Big Grin

It means "In other words" - it's often used when you want to describe something you said in more detail. It's an abbreviation of the Latin phrase "Id Est", which translates as "That is".

btw, I think the LF-HF devision is not right. Defenitely not if you attach it to neurological conditions. That are totaly different views on people. Low and High can only be used specifically. Not as a whole.

And is there a way ASS ppl should function, so we can scale high and low? Is there a way NT ppl should function, so we can scale high and low? Of course some ppl need help, some need a lot. But where does low functioning start and where high and what are the criteria?

I tend to agree - The line between LF & HF is so blurry as to be non-existent.

I think of it not so much as a diagnostic condition, but more as whether or not a person is able to perform the everyday tasks needed to survive without help.

The reason I wanted to create the high & low functioning NT categories is to show that many Neurotypical people often need a large support structure to "cope" with day to day activities. They just have that support network ready and available.

OTT=out of topic
