[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why don't you get the book Steve jobs wrote about growing up with autism. Oh... Wait...[/quote]

Do you have a child with ASD?  It does not sound like you do or even have a child with SNs bc then you should be able to show some empathy about how parents explain to their kid about a condition they have.  Not sure why you are taking such offense?

If it makes it easier for the parent to think Steve Jobs is on the spectrum and that is how the Parent is dealing with their child's diagnosis, how does this hurt or affect you in any way?

Sheeh, this is suppose to be a support forum.[/quote]
First- it's not just one poster that is taking issue with OP. Secondly- support does not have to = blind acceptance. My kid has spins bifida. If I told him that Jesse Owens had SB it would be a lie. And if I told him he could just like Jesse Owens that would also be a lie. And for what purpose? DS doesn't give a sh#t about winning Olympic medals. But as a parent, I would.
As for the books- are you open to videos? Tons of great videos shot/made by autistic kids as they explain their world/thinking. A simple google search brings them up- but I am happy to post links if you think it would resonate with your kid.[/quote]

You are still debating. [/quote]
