Glad to see that someone took the time to actually study this issue. I tried in vain to find the source of the 80% number and could never find. It always bugged me that we know divorce statistics on all kinds of other issues (different religion, lived together before marriage, etc), but the one about [...]

Also, yes, I know God didn’t cause autism in a lot of our kids, but somehow this has a nicer ring than Autism Mothers Chosen by Incompetent, Uncaring, Boneheaded and All Around Clueless Medical Establishment and the Pharmaceutical Industry Complex.

If you have a child with autism, you’re probably already aware of this concept whether you know it or not. Autism magnifies your problems. If you have money problems, most can expect them to get worse. If you have problems in your marriage, they will be harder to ignore. If you have addictions, you’ll be [...]

How will Health Care Reform impact Autism Spectrum Disorders?
I really wish I had a clue of how to answer that question. I’ve heard all of the debating and name calling for a year and still really have no idea of exactly what just happened.
Politics and everything else aside, being able to get insurance without [...]

I usually love The Onion, but this article, Autistic Child Ruins Marriage He Was Born To Save, is a) just mean, b) full of sterotypes, and c) not funny. I’ve HAD BEEN a fan of The Onion for years and it’s sad to see that they are so mean-spirited and not funny.

I am sick and frickin’ tired of seeing these autism murder suicides. Mom or Dad can’t take it any more. Can’t bear to think of how their child’s life will end up, decides to off everyone involved. For some reason, these people who are good at killing their children, often screw it up and survive [...]

As kids, most of us were not too fond of going to the dentist. Often a scary ordeal even for “neurotypical” children, it can be downright terrifying to kids with autism. For one thing, they are asked to sit still for an extended period of time while a stranger poke, picks, and scrapes around in [...]
