As the parent of a child with autism it makes me hope my son will oneday feel that sense of accomplishment. To be like everyone else for one day. I am so happy for his family and him. Here is a scary stat, 1 in 166 kids is born with autism. Think of this boy the next time you find your self acting foolish at your kids games...
Think of this boy the next time you find your self acting foolish Acting foolish, as in using a screen name to express hatred for your fellow man? Yeah, I'll have to think about that. Perhaps you should read this. Of course, it's probably written by a bunch of liberals, who, of course, you hate. Liberals may have some political weaknesses, but at least they don't favor relaxing clean air and water regulations. As a parent of an autistic child, I'm guessing you've heard it widely speculated that certain pollutants can lead to birth defects and other developmental problems in children. Of course, if that comes from a political party other than your own, you probably don't want to hear it. Hopefully, you've managed to refrain from expressing your hatred for your fellow man to your child; unfortunately, it rarely works out that way.
I must also say that I have read this filter for the past few years and it's great to see the soft side of some usually hard core posters. You are giving me more faith in humanity! I will have this posted on all the autism sites we visit. Daddisam best of luck with you health issues. Owlhouse: Best of luck with your son. With a caring dad like you he is ahead of his peers already. Just remember be his advocate and NEVER take no for an answer.
Black Hand Thanks for the link. As an asisde, the IHATE LIBERALS is a tongue in cheek jab at another poster, an old friend. I normally only use this to post to his obvious posts. I forgot to change log on....
What's that thing the kids say? PWMemed or something?
