This should be added to the "Immigration" section. ZoraSilv ( talk) 12:23, 29 November 2022 (UTC)
Specifically the paragraph on Australia. Australia's "health criteria" are in scare quotes and the last sentence is not phrased neutrally. 293CD ( talk) 14:48, 15 September 2023 (UTC)
I think this article should have something about the abuse against autistic students in school.
here are links to reports of this.

also the practice of restraining autistic student is often overused by school staff this video explains it well.

New Zealand does not effectively ban immigration with an autism diagnosis. The linked article for this claim is also misleading,lacks balance and is out of date. Immigration NZ will flag diagnosis that are deemed "serious and severe" and has a healthcare burden of $NZ81,000/5yr. Most if not all functioning adults and children looking to immigrate to NZ will not meet those criteria and many can and do immigrate to NZ every year without issue. This article does not reflect that reality and I fear that this section is based on the one linked article. 2407:7000:8DB6:C000:C8CF:758E:2CB8:D812 ( talk) 20:21, 19 November 2023 (UTC)
