I haven't sought self-forgiveness because I feel I was preyed upon and not responsible for the many bad things that happened to me.

Like bookends, we have learned to support each other when the stuff in the middle pushes us apart.

Exploring Feelings for Young Children with High-Functioning Autism or Asperger's Disorder: The STAMP Treatment Manual offers practical recommendations and creative practices that will certainly help young children with high functioning autism or Asperger's syndrome overcome their struggles with the really tough issues blocking their positive growth and development.

I am a strong believer in grass roots communities, but I also believe government resources, when available, should be equally available to all people.

I can only imagine how difficult it must be for someone facing racial or social prejudices to add autism to their list of struggles. It might be less stressful and at times, easier, to ignore the autism.
