RE: Autism is a Gift; It is Neurodiversity in a NeuroBland World
The institutions, I think, are lagging indicators. The smart money is starting to understand how beautiful your daughter is :) And that's what counts, the institutions will have to adapt if they want to stay relevant.
Congrats on having that gift in your life and on rising to the occasion, to understand her like that I'm sure you were a great mother for her.
Thank you for your words @full-measure. It wasn't easy when she was young as she was nonverbal for a number of years but she has been a great gift, and in some respects, she has mothered me. She is a woman child without judgment or criticism, but lives in a serene sense of her own worth. It's enlightening to say the least. She has saved me from myself more than once.
Beautiful conversation here. I am glad both of you are contributing to this community and my feed. It means a lot.
