Guest guest Posted August 29, 2003 Report Share Posted August 29, 2003 Dawn, Where did you get those cards? I'd like to order them if there is somewhere to order them from. My friend has a 10 year old daughter who's HFA, she used to throw horrible fits in public, and they always got dirty looks. Many times she joked about making a shirt that said " I'm not bad, I'm autistic " . I haven't had much of this type of proplem with my 10 year old, who has AS, but my 3 year old, , who had a dx of PDD-NOS and SID can be quite difficult at times in public and at home.

Guest guest Posted August 29, 2003 Report Share Posted August 29, 2003 Back in the beginning of the summer we talked about taking the kids to the parks. Some kind soul posted the link for us to be able to get these cards so our kids didn't have to wait in the long lines. I got mine a couple of weeks ago. Will that kind soul post the link again for those list mates who are new, or didn't catch it last time. I didn't save it so I'm no help. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The cards come laminated and I like them b/c it will help with the long lines at the Disney Parks I plan on just showing them to the guest services there to get front of the line passes.

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 If anyone is interested, I created autism cards (mostly out of necessity) to hand to people in public in case your child is having a tantrum. Instead of putting up with the rude stares and comments, I just hand them a card. Just go to : http://www.autismlink.com/store/ The cards are the first item there. They read: " What you are witnessing is a child with autism. This child is not a brat, does not need discipline, and we are not bad parents. Autism is a neurobiological disorder that makes children behave in ways that most people don't understand. People with autism are often confused and upset and react in ways that are socially inappropriate, such as a tantrum. Please be patient while we teach our child how to function appropriately in the community. " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 One I created was: Our sons behavior caught your attention, your behavior caught ours. We are trying to modify his, please modify yours. Call 1-800-3autism Once handed to them as I would move on, they would find me in the store and begin apologies, dialogue. The elderly man that said to me " I'd just take him home and beat his ass " , my reply was.... " That's why God gave him to us, not you " and handed him the card. autism cards > If anyone is interested, I created autism cards to hand to people in > public in case your child is having a tantrum.
