Guest guest Posted September 26, 2008 Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 You all have been so awesome helping name the group. Thank you so much! I want to give you a little synopsis which might change which pictures you send. The pictures, I'd like to be OUR KIDS...whatever stage they are at..if they are recovered, still sick, look sick, look awesome, whatever. Because this is autism..our kids are all so different in every way. I'm not worried about before and afters for this part. Although, if you send them, I'll file them away to maybe use later because I think parents get hope from seeing recoveries, I know I did. But it's kind of a double edged sword of hope...we hope it can happen but then have that "oh crap" feeling in the pit of our stomach as well. Make sense? Then you feel guilty for having that "oh crap" feeling, right? I played with the name FACES a little bit and here is what I came up with. FAMILIES with AUTISM thriiivng with CUTTING edge EDUCATION and SUPPORT The word Thrive (like www.thriiive.com ) is a great word for what we want our kids to do...just thrive in whoever they are now and whoever they become. Our adults with autism like Shore are thriving, right? I think this word helps to be INCLUSIVE of everyone..the recovered kids, the struggling kids, the almost-recovered but not quite there kids and the super sick kids. Let me know your thoughts.
