Requested by one of our readers/viewers. Thank you.
This educational video is intended to draw attention to the problem of facilitator cuing in Facilitated Communication (FC). FC is also known as Spelling to Communicate (S2C), Rapid Prompting Method (RPM), and, as seen in this video, Speaking With Eyes.
In 2018, the Department for International Disabilities posted a KZitem video featuring Jonathan Bryan and two facilitators spelling out a message using a plastic letter board held in the air. They claim that Jonathan can "speak with his eyes," but who is really doing the communicating?

To date, there is no reliably controlled evidence to prove proponent claims of independent communication. Rather, research shows that facilitators and not their clients are controlling the FC-generated messages.
Organizations such as the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) and the American Association on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (AAIDD), among others, oppose the use of FC/S2C/RPM, citing concerns about facilitator control, prompt dependency, lack of scientific evidence, financial and opportunity costs, and potential harms (including false allegations of abuse).
