Amazingly Embarrassing Parents |
| | I'm Autistic, Now What? (Web Video) / int_1434e55c |
comment |
Amazingly Embarrassing Parents: Megan has sometimes chewed out Neurotypical parents whose condescending or infantilizing treatment of children, or whose purposefully flagging their neurodivergent children as Autistic, results in the kids feeling shamed. |

Hiding the Handicap |

comment |
Hiding the Handicap: One of Megan's videos has her reacting to a Reddit post by a mother who hid her daughter's Autism diagnosis from the daughter for years. Megan is upset about this, explaining how the daughter could have been bullied for being the "weird" kid and denied useful accommodations as a result of not knowing about her Autism diagnosis. |

Uninvited to the Party: Megan gets upset when she reads about A mom who invited everyone BUT the Autistic kid to her son's birthday party. She flat-out states that the mom should have invited only certain close friends instead. |

Becoming the Mask |
| | I'm Autistic, Now What? (Web Video) / int_44606d14 |
comment |
Becoming the Mask: Deconstructed. "Masking", the practice of Autistic people acting like Neurotypicals, is described as being extremely adverse to Autistic people's mental health, and Megan has devoted several videos to some effects of Masking, such as identity crises, mental breakdowns, and loss of energy. |

Lost Toy Grievance: Proxy example- One of Megan's reactions involves a married Lesbian who threw out her Autistic wife's plushies because they were getting wet and moldy, then posted about it on Reddit. Megan is absolutely furious when she sees that post, and starts ranting about how she should have just put them through the dryer before they got moldy. |

Underdressed for the Occasion: As a kid, Megan prioritized wearing sensory-friendly comfy clothes over her appearance (or conformity to dress norms), frequently resulting in this trope. |
