I really needed this…I am a mother of a newly diagnosed 39 year old son. A very late diagnosis, no doubt. But, it is what it is, and I just want to love and support him. He’s had a rough time of it. I want to help support him in what he loves and wants to do to be happy. Your ‘Ten Things’ have really given me food for thought and some added direction. Thank you so much for posting. =)

I’m a PreK teacher and I usually have at least 1 student with autism each year. Today I had a bewildered mother in my classroom, holding a 30 page “observation” (diagnosis). I am going to print this and give it to her tomorrow. Some of the descriptions and explanations might help that family move forward into supporting their daughter.

In other words, the author has not bothered to ask any actual autistic people what they wish people had known when they were a child.
