Open Letter or Autism Is Nothing to Be Afraid OF
Dear teenager at the large fast food chain,
Alex and I see you every Tuesday, during our routine of dinner and adventure night. You greet us with your bright, shining smile and take our order. You know what Alex orders and put in into your register reflexively. You tolerate my indecision because I've eaten at your restaurant chain so many times, that I no longer know what I’m in the mood for. You then take my order and payment, as always.

This is the face of someone who has a hard time saying words. Ironically, he has learned to speak the few words he can in multiple languages. When he does speak, we're never quite sure what language will come out of his mouth.

He's discovered that there are many ways to say the same thing, but doesn't understand that his parents, teachers and therapists aren't as adept at speaking multiple languages as he has become. This became very apparent as he walked out of the bathroom at the Ex's house and said something. It was one word, but it didn't sound like any word we knew. We asked him if he would please repeat it.
14,000?
WOW! I'm, truly grateful for all the folks that have taken the time to check out the images I've put together.
The thing I value the most is the constructive criticism and tips from folks. This has helped me improve my work.
Thanks again!

Have you seen the documentary "Loving Lamposts", they do mention this therapy but I could never have my little man go through that. You are correct, spectrum children are NOT broken.
