blind yeah march 8 2014 12 59 am reply cancel mike i can not remember who posted it last week but it was about offering a quote you and beth were on there i do remember that my quote was get educated before passing judgement or something close there my feelings on that quote encompass every spectrum across our lives and it included my very special new close friend you kristi and tucker i continue to gain the most incredible education about autism and i m grateful every day for what i learn you amaze me as a mother and i love you to pieces for who you are as a person and for the mother you are to that perfect little boy that s how i see him for real just let him know i m still starving for our guy s night out with homemade mac n cheese xoxo s to you both always march 7 2014 3 26 am reply cancel kristi campbell oh mike i can t tell you how much it means to me that you have embraced tucker as your little buddy and also as a perfect little boy he really is in all of the big ways sure he scores zeros on tests that measure his age but fuck those tests right i loved your quote last week too by the way so much and very happy to have you as a friend as well thanks so so so much for wanting to learn more about autism because of tucker he s not every kid with it but he s here and important and brave thanks huge for your support march 8 2014 1 03 am reply cancel tarana thanks for the list it really needs to be shared it s important to remember before we stare at another mom that no one knows her child the way she does march 7 2014 8 50 am reply cancel kristi campbell thanks for getting it friend and yeah nobody likes her kid to be stared at no matter why march 8 2014 1 12 am reply cancel tamara within my hospital baby group two kids were diagnosed early with autism and with both the mothers did have sinking suspicions but the rest of us didn t know and my friend made a post like this on fb once about what she wanted us all to know it was beautiful one main thing she said was that just because her son is so high functioning and we all rave about him does not mean he doesn t have autism and that her time at home with him can be heartbreaking and frustrating so basically she said that us telling her how wonderful he was didn t help her at all i had no idea that totally changed how i spoke to her her son is wonderful and beautiful and scarlet loves to play with him however that doesn t mean he doesn t have autism march 7 2014 8 56 am reply cancel kristi campbell wow tamara that s so true i mean people tell me all the time how amazingly beautiful tucker is and they are right this kid s eyes will kill anybody with their depth and beauty but also sure that doesn t take into account that he has to do the things he does either thanks for getting it sistahwife march 8 2014 1 14 am reply cancel dana my kids think the term autism spectrum is kind of strange but this post proves why it exists autism isn t just one thing with one definition to assume a child is a certain way because they have autism or any special need is to define him by a diagnosis when you reach out to readers you are debunking those assumptions and creating more empathy and understanding thank you for that kristi and thank you for sharing the thoughts of your pac tribe march 7 2014 9 43 am reply cancel kristi campbell i think the term autism spectrum is strange too but i m so much more comfortable with it than just saying autism for whatever reason i m sure that s about me and not about tucker but maybe you just nailed why to assume anything about a kid because you know another kid well yeah march 8 2014 1 17 am reply cancel sandy ramsey i learn so much when i read your posts i admit sometimes when i see a child in public and it looks like they are pitching a fit and the mom does nothing i shake my head a little and judge i won t do that anymore sure maybe some of them are outright tantrums but i will no longer just assume that because of you and the voice that you have for all of these brave moms and their incredible children every single point on that list needs to be heard i think the one that struck me the most is that all kids bring uniqueness all of them march 7 2014 10 01 am reply cancel kristi campbell all kids do bring uniqueness sandy and i m so with you on judging other people s kids and other people s parenting methods the thing is though we don t know we don t know what else is going on sometimes maybe you should shake your head a little bit god knows i do but sometimes like when tucker refuses to wear a jacket it s not bad parenting it s respecting our kids thanks much for this march 8 2014 1 25 am reply cancel sarah est 1975 my 6yo son who is not on the spectrum is nonetheless a massive hand flapper like massive and has been ever since he was 3 months old he sometimes gets weird looks and behind the hand comments when we are out and about i just want to say to people if you have questions why is he doing that just ask it s okay i wonder if you feel the same as an epileptic myself i came to the conclusion long ago that i felt better when people with questions or who were tempted to pass judgment based on very little information just asked me so that they could get edja ma cated and more informed sadly people often don t choose that route what are your feelings about it march 7 2014 10 22 am reply cancel kristi campbell i so completely feel the same sarah i am more than happy to answer any questions about tucker his delays autism and also more than happy to say i don t know but to start a dialogue about it kids are kids and i just want people with typical ones to accept my son the way that they assume i ll accept theirs i d definitely welcome a dialogue and i thank you for asking because that says a lot march 8 2014 1 30 am reply cancel katia oh wow what an incredibly important empathy checklist number 8 10 broke my heart a little bit i don t know why any parent wouldn t extrapolate their own sense of love and acceptance of their child onto other kids it breaks my heart that special needs moms would have to ask for that acceptance not fair thank you for this list which really brings things home for me such an important observation on not assuming that all spectrum kids should be similar in a way why should they when non spectrum kids aren t i loved 6 as well we cannot dismiss their creativity just because it may manifest itself in a different way march 7 2014 10 34 am reply cancel kristi campbell katia it breaks my heart that we have to ask for that acceptance too but it s a reality it s like parents bond with parents of non special needs kids because they feel like oh isn t this cute and it is cute but what our kids are doing much behind schedule maybe is also adorable and worthy of embrace thanks so much for getting that part it means so much to me that you do march 8 2014 1 33 am reply cancel karen great post once again and so true i think there needs to be a lot less judging from people every child and family is different if we all accepted and understood that life would be awesome march 7 2014 10 39 am reply cancel kristi campbell yes every child is awesome and it s the grown ups who just need to realize it thanks karen march 8 2014 1 34 am reply cancel kerri oh i love this they live out loud perfect my friend simply perfect i think 10 is my favorite we have to accept that their kids are perfect right march 7 2014 11 14 am reply cancel kristi campbell no doubt we are so expected to accept our friends kids why should we have to hope that they accept ours march 8 2014 1 35 am reply cancel kelly l mckenzie please accept our kids the way that you assume we will accept yours that s it right there thank you i shall march 7 2014 11 24 am reply cancel kristi campbell aw thanks kelly you rock march 8 2014 11 58 am reply cancel nothingbythebook love simply love march 7 2014 11 26 am reply cancel kristi campbell xo nbtb xo march 8 2014 11 59 am reply cancel michele kristi this list makes so much sense and has given me a lot to think about thank you for posting march 7 2014 11 31 am reply cancel kristi campbell thanks for reading and commenting michele i think it s important for people to know that it s okay to ask questions and feel awkward but that our kids are just kids march 8 2014 12 04 pm reply cancel jean thank you for putting this out there for my part someone who tries so hard to respond in a positive way when i hear someone talking about a child who didn t seem to be behaving properly or wearing at hat when it was below freezing and what are his parents thinking i ll speak up march 7 2014 12 30 pm reply cancel kristi campbell you rock jean it s such a small thing to remind people that not all kids will wear hats and it makes such a big difference to further understanding and to stop assumptions that bad parenting is involved thanks so much march 8 2014 12 05 pm reply cancel kenya g johnson great list kristi i continue to learn here as a bystander i don t gawk but i m also probably very obvious in pretending not to see or hear march 7 2014 12 48 pm reply cancel kristi campbell yeah i hear you on being obvious in pretending to not see or hear as i think i m obvious about it too i usually just try to make sure to give the mom a smile if she seems stressed out just so she knows i m not annoyed if that makes sense it s hard to know what to do sometimes though like when a child is obviously physically deformed or something i always feel like does the mom want to chat does she want me to be busy and not notice i don t know i guess we ll all figure out what to do together march 8 2014 12 07 pm reply cancel jamie southmainmuse i hope some day at a blogging conference or something you meet leisahammett her daughter grace is a phenomenal artist and leisa is a huge autism and art advocate love her http www leisahammett com march 7 2014 1 11 pm reply cancel
