I teach at JCCC too and my 3year, 10 mo. old son son is newly diagnosed with Autism.

It is a perplexing and fascinating disorder.

thank you for posting, laura gascogne

You teach at JCCC. So do I, and my son is on the spectrum (newly diagnosed)...we are still in process of getting a thorough diagnosis through developmental doc,...psychologist says he has it along with ADHD...has all the signs and symptoms of this puzzling, yet fascinating disorder. Been reading a lot of Temple Grandin...

She is amazing.
Thank you,
