I had friends growing up but I don't think they were the same as friends normal girls had. I could only play with other kids if they were doing what I wanted to do. I also copied them to try and blend in. It was hard work. Then I quit when I was in my early teens.

A bit over the top, don't you think?

For as little as £5 a month, you could sponsor an Aspie girl and watch her make friends, play hopscotch, learn ballet and have a normal life. Just £5 and you can make a world of difference. Call our hotline on 0800 555 777 and sponsor a female Autistic child now.

Whitetigerdream...Laura...:

Your video portrayal of girls and young women
with autism spectrum disorders moved me.

I immediately signed my name to this petition:

Autism Speaks: Don't Speak For Me

But much more needs to be done; in the USA, in Canada, everywhere.

How can I help?

Thank you. My intention is to help people relate who may never have thought they could relate before to an autistic female. So, I'm glad if that message is getting out and doing what I'm after.

I already signed the Autism Speaks Does Not Speak for Me petiton and I also made a counter-vid to their PSA about a month ago.

I identified with almost all of this video. I like it.
