RE: I feel like I've found my people again :)

in #introducemyself7 years ago

Welcome to Steemit @jennywebster Great article!
I saw a video the other day about a dad with an autistic son, who spoke out saying he does not believe it is a disability. His son has taught him more than he could imagine and he was standing up for his son. I quite enjoyed it.

Sort:  

It's definitely a spectrum. For some it might not be a disability but my son is disabled. He'll never live on his own, no basic concept of how to stay safe in public, very little language, extreme sound sensitivities that cause violent meltdowns when triggered. He's a toddler in a man's body.
