I have a friend with autism, and it's not a disorder to me, it's something that makes him, him. Everyone has problems, no one is perfect. I have numerous problems, but that's what makes me, me.

I hope your child gets the best of help regarding this though, to an autistic person, the world is such a scary place...

P.S

I'm also in a special needs school where we have children from all ages with different problems, autism being one of them, and the children there are just adorable! I love them. They are so special and precious.
