How afraid should I be?

I have been afraid for most of my life. When I was a child I was afraid of bullies, or my family. As I got older, I continued to be afraid of being left out or ignored. I was often afraid that I would say or do the wrong thing and actually harm others. I have been and continue to be afraid that I will let people down, disappoint them, or fail to do the right thing. I am afraid of breaking things, since I am sort of clumsy. I am deeply afraid of making others angry at me for all sorts of reasons.

And now I have become more afraid than ever that my children are not safe. That they will be bullied, or injured, or that they will be taken away from from my wife and me. We recently applied for passports and I was utterly convinced that not only would be not get our passports, but that the other documentation we had sent would disappear. There was a delay in getting our tax return, and I really thought that not only would we not get that money, but that all our assets would be frozen and taken by the government.

Which seems worse- the idea that your citizenship might be revoked, or that even you are a citizen, your rights may be stripped from you?

Deportation.

"National registry of autistic persons."

"Cure autism."

"A burden on society."

I am afraid.
