I think the issue about the spinners is that they're being used incorrectly for some autistic children. In my anecdotal experience in home health, I have used them to help calm a few kids when they're having their meltdowns. They should be used as a tool to help center a child instead of used as a constant focus. But just like anything else, tools can be used incorrectly.
