Recently, I found out that my son has autism. Naturally, I was confused. Where had I gone wrong? But then I found out that it wasnt anything that I did wrong, and that my son is actually very smart. It angers me so much when people say that autistic children, and people, are stupid. They're actually smarter than most of the human race. My son has feelings just like every other person. I have never met a child, toddler even that is more caring, sweet, or generous as my son is. If your upset, he runs right over to you and tries to comfort you. Would I wish him normal? Never in a million years. He is perfect the way he is.
Honestly I don't know how to say this because you have emotionally appealed to me in the fact that this was a tribute to autistic people and I am autistic myself. This I would say is a verry clever demonstration on how autistic people are wired. I am not entirely sure what the different colors are supposed to represent but along with this pictures description, this has a pyscologicaly impact of hope to those autistic people who have been called imature even by their own family members. Like I said before I should know because I am one of them.
I deeply enjoy this. I am tired of people believing autistic people are those who need to be kept under a tight control because they believe that autistic people are retarded. I put my foot down and declare that is enough to them. I should know because I am high functioning autistic. My grandparents themselves dared to admit to me that they believed that autistic people were less mature than every one else when I know that it is a lie.
I know quite a few people with some form of autism. It's hurtful when people say someone is stupid because they have some sort of medical condition. People kept calling my brother illiterate because he couldn't read as well as other kids but really he has dyslexia.
