Helping a friend -- new autism blog

[hopefulnebula]

I suggested she start it on Disaboom, since it's a good place for autism-related blogs. I also promised to help her promote her posts until she gets more established as a blogger.

Her first post is about

Is it OK if I promote that on Twitter? (Or possibly on my own blog?)

[hopefulnebula]

I'm going to be blogging to (haven't got a post up yet); I've bookmarked it to link to. :)

I'd love to post this in my parenting community. I agree so much with every word, except that last paragraph. It's assuming that everyone with Autism is the same, and we aren't, though most of us certainly do have the same basic needs outlined in this blog

I think she meant it in a figurative sense as well as literal, but I'd have to (heh) ask.

Yes that probably is true.
It's just that some don't seem to get that we are not all able to do some things as well as others. It's hard to explain sometimes... and then I get so wordy about it.
