When I first came across Kent Adams AKA Christschool I figured he was okay. He was a believer in neurodiversity and was an enemy of John Best Junior.
But then something happened that changed him.
I have no idea what triggered it, but now his belief in neurodiversity has switched to an attitude that I reflected on in an entry on my former website blog “The Real Phil G” – in the entry “Neurodiversity 2.0 is damaging”. And it boils down to one very dangerous view that Adams now holds – that the two ends of the Spectrum must be treated as two totally different conditions.
That must never be allowed to happen because it will destroy the real understanding of the Autistic Spectrum.
Adams backs this up with his support of Kim Gilbert. He was about when she had her run in with me but I didn’t know he was on her side until his attitude towards Amanda Baggs came to light. He was on the “she’s a fraud” bandwagon.
That was when he became an enemy of the Autistic community, and then he did something one doesn’t do. He crossed me.
It all started when Craig/Scratcher picked up a comment on You Tube from someone called Ultra Maniac 96 – giving what appeared to be Gilbert’s telephone number. I grabbed her address from that, and if I can prove the junk she’s been spreading was in fact her I’ll have her for defamation. I reflected on that in detail in another earlier entry on The Real Phil G blog titled “Kent Adams has a lot to learn”.
But while I was dealing with the nonsense from Midnight in Chicago, Adams roared in with the following piece of libel;
[ME] posted the home telephone number of a woman known as kgaccount on youtube (she is a mother with a severely autistic child that self injures). He claimed he was a woman living in Honolulu Hawaii with a child with autism and telling her that she didn’t raise her son right and that is why he is the way that he is.

I told him that was libel and he was facing legal trouble, but he laughed it off claiming there was an IP on Gilbert’s account from Sydney. As everyone knows, I’m not living in New South Wales – and besides what was he doing looking at Gilbert’s account stats? Fact is, he lied and thought I lived in Sydney. I called him on that and he laughed figuring I was giving myself away. The man was and is a total idiot.
He’s just so lucky I can’t locate his address so I can sue him.
Just quickly on Amanda Baggs, Adams claimed that he had independent evidence to prove a few things were wrong. But when he was asked he wasn’t forthcoming. The evidence doesn’t exist. That’s his MO. Kent Adams is a liar and a threat to the Autistic community. He wants one thing – to split it down the middle and destroy LFA lives in the process by depriving them and their parents of the very important guidance that those on the higher end of the Spectrum can provide. He is the perfect enemy of Autism and he can’t deny it.
