If you’re into podcasts, I’d recommend The Telepathy Tapes. It tells stories of families with nonverbal children and how they’ve learned other methods of communication. It does get a little “woo-woo” for some people, but it’s really interesting.

Please stop promoting this pseudoscience. The telepathy tapes is repackaged facilitated communication. These people are making money off of this podcast and selling the videos online. They are exploiting these kids and their families.

Looking into it, none of the results are replicated anywhere. The kids seemingly only have this ability under certain conditions and you have to pay to see the experiments

....yeah, it's more charlatanry praying on families hope for a quick buck. Gotta love society!
