I am new here. I am NT, my 3 year old son has autism. I am looking for insight on what it is like having autism, besides the mass media portryal that autism should be cured.


Nice to meet you all

Amy :D

Well it all depends on the type and how servere it is. Being serverely autistic, is one heck of a handful but hey if you love your son no matter what, Nothing else matters. Btw, welcome to Wrongplanet. I hope you enjoy and hope you had a pleasant flight. :)

Welcome Amy.

Best of luck to your family,

And well put UndercoverAlien. All parents should learn all there is to know(?) about autism and by doing so, I hope, really helping their kid(s).
