Guest guest Posted September 9, 2003 Report Share Posted September 9, 2003 But fair warning, Sondra and I have very different styles =)Kasiane Kassiane, not thinking we have different styles but we are at very different places on the spectrum. You IQ is 150 or so and my to be only 86, You reflect more of maybe and Aspergers where I to be of a HFA a form of kanners but higher level of functioning ability. You to be very articulate with a large vocabulary of complex words , where I to struggle. I to have multiple learning disorders, and limited life exposures, where you have not. But, I can create poetry where this is sill is an struggle for you. I to be of married and to have children were you have not come to this place in life yet. So in true not different styles but different places in life. You promote self advocacy but in true not many with ASD that I to know can do this yet in life without the parental guidance. Many I to know are not able to be as verbal to express their own wants and desires, but this is not saying those with Aspergers or very high functioning peoples should not learn this technique of self advocacy, but I to not promote a one size to fit all things. I do promote advocacy though, with the observations of the child, in letting the Childs needs rule the route that is taken for the the IEP. So not different really but the fact is my work leads me to children at various ends of the spectrum and this brings many very different experiences in life. I to be of one who was working with ASD children's for over 8 years. I to also be to parent children on the spectrum so from this angle I to be to feel my exposure brings very different views of the ASD. I to be to put much emphasis on my inner experiences of my own ASD in my work as well. I to have strong memory of things in life even before words and so can be to express it now as adult. My language was of delayed and did not speak until about age 3 1/2 years of age and then had much issues in the expressive parts for many years after this. to be aware that my autism is more pronounced than most of my therapeutic group and this do be to bother me as I to be much want to be like others to just be able to blend at most but in true have learned the blending is of good but does not leave a true expression of me. So have learned to be me and learning it is of safe to be of me so this is half the battle in my life. I to have come to a greater sense of acceptance in many ways to so cure things do not offend me anymore as I to not see my self as broken anymore, This is my personal choice to allow self to be in life as I to be, and do not let outside influences to dictate to me my need of a cure or things of that , but on same thinking I to think it is another's personal choice to be to seek this for thems child if this is what they choose to seek. The best thing is it is okay because it is not me they seek to change but thems own child so this needs to be respected. Many things flood the net and are there for peoples who are seeking it. We have choices, delete it, comment on it in regards to personal views without attack and move on, because it was not a thing directed at me, but to thousands of people who might be to seek the information's So is it bad things that we have come to life with different experiences and or exposures to bring to a speaking event, just because we to both have label of ASD does not mean our views will be all the same we are different because you are kassiane and I to be Sondra TWO individuals who happen to be challenged by ASD at very different levels.

Guest guest Posted September 9, 2003 Report Share Posted September 9, 2003 Kassiane happy to understand you had same thinking, but you choice of different style meant something different to me and so needed much to understand and to now know we are of same in understanding the term of different It is often good to get very different perspectives on the same disorder, I to use the word disorder because the D in ASD stands for that although I to know you do not be to see you self as having a disorder> I to respect that so was to be of clarifying.

Guest guest Posted September 9, 2003 Report Share Posted September 9, 2003 Why not have an autism in girls conference and have issues mostly be focused on he girls version of ASD???? this would be a new things so we can show that ASD is much more prevalent than the books to say. I to doubt it is 1:4-5 girls to be with ASD in compare to boys. I to think maybe it is more of a 3/5 ratio just my thinking on that. We can even call it Autism in Girls conference and maybe to do this annually with pulls of grants and such if much states participate and such and each state to find a funding source of some sort and such we can do this. many states have Departments of Disability councils that offer funds to families to attend such conferences. If we to be to do a 2-3 day conference we can be to have speakers to come from all over the states and I to think much would be of interest in that sort of focus? Including much psychologist and such. Sondra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 9, 2003 Report Share Posted September 9, 2003 Sondra, I'm glad we both know what the other meant now. I think it is excellent to get different perspectives. I also think that if you wish to consider your autism a disorder, I respect that, as you respect me preferring the terms difference and condition.
