I went to an Autism support group this week and I met some nice women, including a woman I used to work with a million years ago. They gave out these cards, though, that I didn't understand. On one side it said "MY CHILD HAS AUTISM, he is not spoiled or bad". On the other side, it had these 'facts' about Autism, the first one of which was that it was a devestating neurological disorder. Devestating? Really? I can think of things that happen to your child that are devestating, but this is not one of them. Not to me, anyway.
