Hey so it's Autism awareness month! Spread the awareness! Learn about autism! Go do it! I'm timing you! Just kidding.
Alrighty so today's subject is perseverance.
I personally feel that this is a very important quatlity to have. Striving for something and then achiving it and looking back on what you did and thinking, wow I did that, that was all me!
How does this relate to autism? It relates because I have had to persevere all of my life. I have had to prove people wrong every step of the way. "Oh, I don't know if your daughter will be able to handle a regular 4 year college/ or be able to get into one." PFFFFTT!! I'M DOING IT RIGHT NOW!!!! I got deferred from USC!! ( I chose Chapman University by the way ) USC!! There are people out there that are not autistic that didn't even get THAT! That just goes to show that to all of you nay sayers that doubted me, in your face! DO NOT DOUBT THE AUTISTIC PEOPLE!
okay back to the more professional side, (I've had to much sugar *munches on a jelly belly*)
I personally feel it's good to have a goal set for an autistic child. My parents always had me involved in sports or some sort of activity. It's good because then they have something to strive toward and once they reach it they can know that they can do something on their own. Which in the later run can help with other things when they grow older. And it's okay to help them on the way everyone needs a little help autistic or not, but also let them try to do it on their own.
When someone tells you that you can't or wont succeed in something just because of a disability, smack that fool upside the head! No really don't listen to them, if you really strive and believe that you can do it, anything is possible. Really it is! Persevere! Strive to do something great and prove those nay sayers wrong! It's fun! That goes for autistic and non autistic people!
