I asked for advice of someone special

You know I asked someone with autism what its like because I want so badly to know my son on a more specific level. I wanted to know what the stimming and scritping was about and this man told me basically it was so that he could better understand what he was hearing and learning. He also told me that sometimes when the stimming and scripting is at a high that maybe something happend in his day that made him hightend. Then this man told me that autistic people work 3 times harder to understand this world. I am so grateful to him for speaking to me and helping me to understand things better. I love my boys so much and just want to know how to be the best mom I can to them. Sean is the stimming and scripto king. I swear he will be an actor someday. He can memorize any line to a movie. Yesterday he told me that he would be a jetti from star wars. I think that he already is. Anyway I am so thankful and grateful to this man. He has opened my eyes more and made me see clearly. Denise
