Vivian is a Deaf rubber duck who wears a hearing aid. She loves to hang out with her friends and she’s tired of wearing her hearing aid takes it off and reads bills. She wears a rash guard stating she’s Deaf to stop people from presuming otherwise and hiding their bills when talking to her.
She’s the second in a new series called Chronically Quackers available exclusively through NatLeBrunDesigns

There are many of us out there who don’t believe in ABA as a therapy for autism. It makes us, as autistic people vulnerable to abuse throughout our lives as it stops us from being able to say ‘no’ when we are uncomfortable with a situation.
Those of us who have undergone ABA are more likely to have PTSD as an adult.
Our risk of suicide is increased.
As a reminder, 10% of all my profits from Autistic and Neurodivergent designs go to Autistic Inclusive Meets (https://autisticinclusivemeets.com/) a London based charity who do not believe in ABA and who do work nationwide to help end the stigma of being Autistic
