n t say that much new but also know it s new to some parents hopefully i mean i hope anyway i know you get it and thank you march 10 2014 11 44 pm reply cancel michelle every kid is different it s crazy to lump everyone together thanks for sharing it i m going to pass it along too i think it s important for people to understand that autism is has a broad spectrum and everyone has a different normal march 10 2014 10 39 pm reply cancel kristi campbell thanks michelle you re right that every kid is different and i guess what i m trying to say is that i hope everybody can learn to accept our atypical kids the way they just assume we ll accept theirs i think that s the take away march 10 2014 11 47 pm reply cancel crystal what a wonderful post kristi i m going to share this with some parents i know who are struggling with autism and pushing their kiddo awfully hard reading these words might make a difference march 11 2014 8 34 am reply cancel kristi campbell thanks so very much crystal i know a family who is really struggling right now too and trying to push their son to do things that he s really not ready for it s hard thanks again march 28 2014 9 59 am reply cancel lady lilith acceptance is the key i work with special needs children and so many people feel sorry for them i find if you accept any child or who they are you can raise the bar and help them reach the next level march 11 2014 11 27 am reply cancel kristi campbell yes yes yes to please don t feel sorry for special needs kids acceptance is everything march 28 2014 10 00 am reply cancel andie thanks for sharing this awareness great insights on this post march 12 2014 6 11 am reply cancel kristi campbell thanks andie march 28 2014 10 00 am reply cancel linda atwell out one ear oh kristi yes tucker looks perfect he looks exactly like lindsey did at that age i could see some differences but not enough and besides she looked so frickin normal typical some people said i had nothing to worry about other s said her traits weren t typical it was a confusing time especially since she was my first too then we had michael who whizzed past his sisters milestones and surpassed her quick but still we thought she would catch up every story is different lindsey didn t catch up and the gap widened and the older she got she often had a untypical look about her that i d never noticed when she was small i think the gap just finally widened enough between her peers and herself that oh i finally had to admit that she really was what the doctors said but that is a different story i love the list i love the first line the word autism entered my heart as a whisper i love the preface thanks for another awesome post march 12 2014 12 46 pm reply cancel kristi campbell thanks so much linda it really is a confusing place especially when different people have differing opinions of tucker and that he may catch up or whatever march 28 2014 10 05 am reply cancel a morning grouch love this post so so good i teach my students who are learning about autism the old adage you ve met one person with autism you ve met one person with autism try to beat that in their brains all of us are unique individuals on the spectrum are no different march 12 2014 7 24 pm reply cancel kristi campbell yes yes all of us are unique thanks so much march 28 2014 10 14 am reply cancel monika sharma absolutely right this post is really amazing i appreciate such a wonderful easily explanation which a mom must know great post march 13 2014 3 07 am reply cancel kristi campbell thanks much monika march 28 2014 10 16 am reply cancel the monko what a great post many of the behaviours you listed when your son was young are things my son did too including the head banging and running laps so i get why you might be concerned and yet not convinced i never know when a child is making funny noises or acting in a quirky way whether it is better to look or not look its really helpful to have some mum s perspectives on what they d like from me i usually try a glance and a smile and hope that that conveys your child is sweet and while your child s behaviour is interesting to me it is in no way bothering me so please don t feel stressed by me even if they don t get that from it i hope the smile says hey we are all parents together march 13 2014 9 27 am reply cancel kristi campbell i think a glance and a smile meant to convey that the mom shouldn t be stressed by you is perfect and yes we re all parents together above all differing abilities thanks much march 28 2014 10 25 am reply cancel courtney conover wow kristi just wow numbers 7 8 and 9 made the levies break i m all out bawling over here i don t have an autistic child so i m not even going to begin to say i know what parents of autistic children go through day in and day out however i do know that judgment regardless of the reason hurts like a bitch the way scotty has been perceived based solely on his language delay has brought out a level of frustration in me that i didn t know i was capable of feeling people can be mean very mean even now though he has made tremendous strides and we are not fighting the same fight i am grateful for what his challenges have taught me about him and other children beautiful post kristi thank you march 13 2014 11 21 am reply cancel kristi campbell sorry courtney to have made you cry i hate that you too know the judgement and that people have been mean it s sad how judgmental people can be without knowing what they re talking about i hope that we can all get closer to a place in which each of us is more accepted for who we are and not for what we may struggle with xo march 28 2014 10 36 am reply cancel tracie the thing that sticks out to me from this list is how often possibly well meaning people who do not have medical degrees try to argue or disagree with the diagnosis you have received from an actual doctor that is very frustrating march 13 2014 6 56 pm reply cancel kristi campbell i know what you mean tracie people don t know what to say or do i honestly think that most people are well meaning but at times can be hurtful and insensitive thanks so much for coming by march 28 2014 10 37 am reply cancel julia starr arnold i love love love this post he is so lucky to have you julia frantic mama march 14 2014 12 40 am reply cancel lisa the meaning of me it s been far too long since i ve been over here huh life s been a bit nuts how are you i loved this our special needs kids are here on purpose and outloud i m always hesitant to jump in on a discussion like this because i fear someone will say i have no business but i think special needs is as wide a swath as the autism spectrum there are all different kinds this line fits and i can t tell you how great and how well timed this list and post are for me right now as always you have such wonderful insights here i ll be back for more lots to catch up on and tucker by the way is gorgeous march 22

cancel lillian connelly you re doing a good job on this whole mom thing i think tucker is lucky to have such a amazing advocate in his corner i am sure you have inspired other mothers to speak out

attention to this link kristi october 21 2014 12 23 pm reply cancel jana i think like most things people fear the unknown they feel awkward and uncomfortable because they don t understand it or are

their child i thought that number 6 on your list was especially important to remember all children are capable of learning as long as we find the right way to do it november 28 2015 8 04 pm reply cancel erin fullerton as an occupational therapy ot graduate student my knowledge of ot grows with each assignment at the same time the depth of my connection with the core principles of our practice reinforces who i want to be as an ot practitioner the ot code of ethics outlines the seven core values as altruism equality freedom justice dignity truth and prudence the appeal for justice is a call for advocacy i want to be an advocate for families of children with autism spectrum disorder asd i have read studies about the link between ptsd and parents of children with asd the disability scoop notes that their chronic stress is comparable to combat soldiers i believe the family centered and community based practice in ot can be a source of support for parents ots trained in these practices recognize the impact of asd on the whole family dynamic and communities whether a local association or an online community of a blog can be created to be an outlet for expression and encouragement no parent should feel they are alone so i was thrilled to come across your blog and i believe it is a significant resource thank you for sharing your family s story and teaching me about the realities of life with asd i pledge to continue to follow your blog and similar family blogs to better prepare as an ot practitioner december 14 2015 3 34 pm reply cancel you will love your retarded baby and we

m sure you ll make sure he doesn t because a number doesn t define who he is i was talking to a friend today about her daughter who just had extensive testing to determine whether she had adhd one test was an iq test and my friend will never tell her daughter that number she doesn t want her to feel like she can t live up to it or to feel like she is limited by it whether it s low or high it s not who she is because as you said every kid has the power to change the world february 27 2014 10 16 pm reply cancel kristi campbell dana you re right he will never know that number unless of course he ends up rocking drawing a house and cutting with scissors in which case we can joke about it later or not i think it s really smart that your friend isn t telling her daughter her iq test number

comment but oh wow there was just so much in this post and it gripped me so tightly that i finished reading it gasping for air numbers are never a competent way to summarize a person none of us should be measured against our surroundings but only against ourselves i know it s so hard to see that number but tucker made progress with his name he says stuff like what he said this week about his legs being shaky i can t remember the exact words he used just admiring him for using such a perfect term this post should be in the dictionary under motherly love february 27 2014 10 36 pm reply cancel
