[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ran into a Mom I knew when my ASD DS went to HS. Back then she was very condescending to me, as in "ooh, poor you, you have a child with disabilities. He won't amount to much." She treated my DS as if he was damaged goods and so did her DS and his friends. She would say things like, "oh, are you sure he should be doing this (like be in HN classes or academic clubs)? Isn't this too much for him?" Well, my DS has successfully graduated from college with an engineering degree, has a job, and his own place. You should've seen her face when I told her. Her DS dropped out of college after his Freshman year and has been living at home all this time. I will gloat. My "problem child" did not fail to launch. Her star athlete did. To all those who doubt children like mine: FU.[/quote] OP, I second this! Congrats to you and your child. [/quote]
