Welcome to the place for Moms raising children with special needs. I am fairly hands off in running the group, but have been known to delete comments that are clearly promotional in nature. Enjoy the community.

Hi Stephanie. I totally understand about your daughter. You could never tell by looking at him that Jaylen has Autism. Unless you talk to him, or witness a tantrum, you would think he has no issues at all.

I am happy to hear you talk about your daughter's abilities. It is so important. I try daily to see the positives in Jaylen and keep those at the forefront of my mind.

Hi! I'm new here. I'm a mama of 5 daughters: 4 living and 1 in Heaven. My oldest dd is mildly retarded with epilepsy, its difficult to tell from looking at her. Most people are hard on her since "she doesn't look like she has any problems", which has been the hardest thing to over come in her 17 yrs of life.
She has more abilities than disabilities; she's smart, very loving, caring and outgoing.

If autism has a to-do list, it might look ilke this: formed when you're half asleep, and never, ever done. http://ow.ly/sDKm
