Moved to http:/ raggette.blogspot.com. Thursday, February 20, 2014. Ways to make children with autism laugh. We can be grateful for their teaching. Us what is important.and EXTRAORDINARY GIFT that many don't even think about. They may not be "angels", but they sure as hell make us better people! When we change, when we enjoy their novel ideas. It's name changes to JOY! Now, this one is "iffy", and I base it on anecdotal evidence: We can show them, or imitate these people. I love her madly!

He has a Non-verbal Learning Disability. He has a son who also has some troubles. Abled and disabled. Both- -not just disabled.

A Shade Of Grey. Dad to the Bear. Just another parent of an autistic child, trying to gain some insight and understanding. Thursday, May 01, 2008. Feeling A Little Optimistic. From my last post, one might conclude that I’m feeling a bit pessimistic these days. Instead, I’m actually feeling a little optimistic. The reason is related to the Bear’s education. Just to get the point out of the way, if anyone has an issue with IBI, my thoughts on the Bear’s program are here. Does the school have a program?

A Shade Of Grey: Some Thoughts Regarding IBI
http://a-shade-of-grey.blogspot.com/2006/05/some-thoughts-regarding-ibi.html
A Shade Of Grey. Dad to the Bear. Just another parent of an autistic child, trying to gain some insight and understanding. Saturday, May 13, 2006. Some Thoughts Regarding IBI. ABA/IBI has been subject to some negative posts recently, most notably by Prometheus. I would suggest that their criticism is both simplistic and off the mark in at least some cases, especially in my daughter's case. The big question is this - does ABA actually "treat" autism - or just treat the "symptoms"? Undoubtedly, some of the...

A Shade Of Grey: ‘Autistic’ vs. ‘Has Autism’
http://a-shade-of-grey.blogspot.com/2007/11/autistic-vs-has-autism.html
A Shade Of Grey. Dad to the Bear. Just another parent of an autistic child, trying to gain some insight and understanding. Thursday, November 22, 2007. 8216;Autistic’ vs. ‘Has Autism’.
