Guest guest Posted March 26, 2002 Report Share Posted March 26, 2002 (Re-post from Sun, 24 Mar 2002 23:30:11 -0800 (PST)) Hello to All.. Just wanted to vent a little. Of all places where acceptance should be a given.. your church family. We went to church and I thought was one of the better visits.. Our son is Autistic & non-verbal(verbal apraxia) he was good and his vocalizations were few.. but they did occur. I keep getting looks and people who we call " Have breathing Problems " .. you know those sounds when someone takes a DEEP breathe! My oldest who is nine is starting to notice more peoples expressions, looks and sounds towards her brother. I have told her that I do not have time for Human Ignorance.. We as time goes on will have to try to educate these humans who do not understand what Autism is.. The ASA has cards that say.. Are you puzzled by my childs behavior? and explain a little to what Autism is. I did not have any on hand to give out at church.. and boy did I want to give them out! I was upset to see my daughter go threw this.. emotional tug-of-war. Being embarrassed, feeling guilty of the embarrassment and then being mad at all around her. I tell her that their is a reason why god made who he is. He made you the person you are.. and your sister the person she is. I would never wish to change the three most special people in my life and thank god every day for giving you, your sister and your brother to me. Okay.. I need a tissue. Thanks for letting me vent.
