I pray that everyone affected by the devastating event that took place Sunday evening in Orlando
(and, I guess that is every one of us, to one degree or another)
finds the love, joy and peace that we are looking for –
the search of those things drove people to that night club in the first place.

"Most Likely to Succeed" 
Heather, I could have been your teacher. Forty years ago, many children did not have to live down a label. Most do not try; they just accept the idea that things are different for them. Living up to teacher’s and parent’s expectations is valid in real life, as is living down to it! I grant you that I am not up on the latest research, but I don’t really think children are that much different now than then, accept for what we allow and expect. Thank God that you know your true special-ness.

I would have to agree with you wholeheartedly. I have yet to meet a child with high-functioning autism, like my son, who also doesn’t have a parent with who acknowledges that they probably have it too, or are sure their spouse/the child’s other parent has it.
