Asking for permission to make copies of your Ten Things article to give to educators at my son's school (brilliant, by the way, as is the book it inspired, which I believe should be required reading by every educator in our school district). Their ignorance (as in lack of knowledge) continues, and while I assume they t...hink they're helping, their actions effectively accomplish the opposite. Please ... Just say yes!Read More

Within the autism community, I'd say this is well known. There are many factions within the community, many approaches and many viewpoints...many of which don't intersect. And shouldn't.

As a mother of an autistic daughter I think it is somewhat unfortunate tha Jenny Mcarthy is the latest celebrity spokesperson for autism. She has some good things to say, but for the most part I find her alarmist, reationary, and narrow minded. Children with autism are all very unique and my daughter for one does not need rescuing.

A ten-year sweep in the life of any child and his or her family, with or without autism, is going to bring profound changes. For my son Bryce, the last ten years have been the ones in which he first became aware of his autism, and then learned to own it in a mature and self-confident manner. ...

Ellen Notbohm, Author Both Sides Now: a good coda to a contentious episode. Differences of opinion are healthy but bitter divisiveness within the autism community advances no one. We all learn as we go along how best to promote awareness. Both sides had something to say here, and hopefully next time we meet somewhere closer to the middle.

If Autism Speaks starts placing people on the spectrum in positions of influence it will go a long way toward diminishing the divisiveness.

Great resource page, Susan. As for becoming an honorary Bostonian...love that too, being from Portland and being a history buff -- Portland came within a coin toss of being named Boston. Let me know when you see anything here that you'd like to repost.

What a difference five years makes. That’s how much time has passed – in a blink – since I picked up my Ticonderoga #2 to write my first Autism Aspererger's Digest column. My son Bryce, the impetus for the column, was finishing elementary school. When...
