Most elementary schools, they know when something's going on with a kid that has autism.
I mean, they recognize it.
They're educated on it.
They clearly know what autism is now.
The middle and high schools, you know, they do need to be trained on what this looks like.
I don't know if it's nurses or counselors or to teach the parents.
But also the research, until we start looking at it before the crisis hits and see what the early signs are, until we start studying that scientifically, we're never going to catch it like we do with autism.
We're never going to catch it early.
And the interesting thing is with autism, autism is going to play out no matter how it's going to play out, especially for the severely autistic.
Now, if you're not as severe, you're going to have a chance for complete recovery.
Schizophrenia can have complete recovery if we just find it in almost everybody.
In memory of my son Joshua, I think I would like to choose that psychosis needs to be treated as the medical emergency that it is, more like a heart attack or a suicide attempt, and we need to treat that illness, and it needs to be considered a crisis.
Good work.
Thank you, Tony.
Thank you for having us.
Yes.
I was going to respond a little bit to everything as fast as I can here.
So when they were talking about jail and not guilty by reason of insanity, again, Arizona has a bit of a problem, especially in Maricopa County.
We're kind of the wild west out here.
So our rule 11, because they did not want to pay for hospitalization to restore people to competency, they do it really poorly in the jails.
