continuing saga

I missed autism awareness month this year. I didn't exactly miss it, but I suppose I didn't post anything in time for April.

Nothing to say except, read this article:

http://special-ism.com/why-autism-acceptance-is-not-enough/2/
"Awareness Leads to Acceptance for Most Disabilities
People who are aware of blindness do not expect blind people to try harder to see.
People who are aware of seizure disorders
do not expect those who have seizures to try harder not to seize.
People who are aware of paraplegia do not expect paraplegics to try harder to walk."
 There are several pages, but worth clicking through to read them all.
