That is my challenge to you so that all of us can get along peacefully and become truly a population of one. I would like to ask you some questions to help you discover what makes you unique, different, and awesome. Are you different? Are you unique? Do you look different than others? Talk differently than others? Do you walk differently than others? Have you been born with talents that very few others have? Have you been brainwashed to look at your talents as a disability? Do you stay up nights dwelling on all the things in life you don t have, rather than focus on all the blessings you do have? Have you ever been bullied at school, at home, and in many areas in your life? Have you ever been called a retard, dumb, disabled ? If you have answered yes to any of these questions, perhaps you have yet to understand, accept, and apply your unique gifts to make the world a better place.

Download or read book I Am Me written by Marlene Ringler and published by Morgan James Publishing. This book was released on 2018-07-24 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A mother of an adult child with autism ponders what happens to children like hers when their parents and families are no longer around to care for them. I Am Me challenges the values and priorities of institutions, communities, and systems to grapple with what is today referred to as a “tsunami”—the nearly 50,000 children who each year face an adult world so sadly unprepared to deal with their ever-growing needs. Like snowflakes, each autistic is different, no less, and deserves respect. It is a journey told through the prism of a mother who offers, hope, belief, and conviction that the life of a child with autism can and should be fulfilling and rewarding, and who compels readers to engage in helping to make the world a safer and better place for those affected by this mysterious condition. In her personal story, Dr. Marlene Ringler takes us into the world of the autistic and helps us to appreciate the complexities of living in a world where being different is a lifelong struggle. She shares her own investigation of this complex neurological disorder, looking for answers where few, if any, exist. Her fascinating journey directly addresses those very human questions as she presents her research findings and current investigations into the spectrum disorder in everyday language. “Marlene has gifted the autism community with a guide that will be useful to parents and others wishing to understand autism from the autism community at large.” —Stephen Mark Shore, EdD, author of Beyond the Wall: Personal Experiences with Autism and Asperger Syndrome
Download or read book Autism written by Cyntyia Rasmussen and published by . This book was released on 2016-12-15 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cindy Rasmussen wrote this story for her children to help them understand what happened in their family when they were growing up, from the perspective of a Mom. Her eldest son, Mark, was only 19 months old when her autistic son, Steven, was born and only 2 1/2 when the first serious problems began. Steven was 6 years old when Geoffrey was born. So although they were there for most of the journey, they have little memory or understanding of the most difficult years for our family. It is her hope that as adults they can read her account and gain a deeper insight and understanding into things that took place in their childhoods and that this knowledge might help them as they go forward in their own lives.
Book Synopsis Autism One Grandparents Roadmap by : Geoffrey Robinson
Download or read book Autism One Grandparents Roadmap written by Geoffrey Robinson and published by Geoffrey Robinson. This book was released on with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is hard to over emphasize the value of early intervention for children on the spectrum. Although written in a grandparent's voice, the book provides directions for parents and care givers who want to support the child. The child’s future cannot wait for an official diagnosis. Our diagnosis did not arrive until over a year after we had begun early intervention. I believe you should start as soon as you begin having concerns about what you are experiencing with the child. If the child is not on the spectrum, you have still begun good practices to support the child. The book is a compilation of live links and articles to get you started on your journey. For the child's sake, you cannot afford to be behind on knowledge. Early intervention. When it came to learning and understanding what autism is and is not, and how to appropriately support our child; we had to dig out every word on our own. Where do we go? Where do I find this? How do I do that? What does stimming mean? After six years with a lovely grandson on the spectrum, I decided families needed an early intervention a roadmap. With luck, someone smarter than me will write a better one. The links embedded in the book are live so you can go directly to the resources or articles I have cited. I am not a therapist or clinician, but I have spent years accumulating information to help my grandson. Information I wish I had had the day he was diagnosed.
