Welcome Summer!! Thanks for the info!!!! You know, I have a son who

is 21, and is a certified fitness trainer (Texas), and wants to be a massage

therapist, and a physical therapist also. He has a 2 yr. associates degree

in Biology, but is hoping to go on (eventually) and become that physical

therapist and massage therapist.

Okay, have you been talking to your mom about this?! Just teasing!!

Hi Deborah

Welcome to the list. My 11 year old daughter Skylar was diagnosed autistic at

the age of 3. This is a great group of individuals. It is a wonderful forum to

share both our joys and anxiety while raising our wonderful daughters. Its good

to have you with us.

Hi everyone. It's so nice to be reading messages from parents who

can understand and not judge. I've found that being the parent of an

autistic child is a journey full of both victories and losses,

triumphs and tragedies. It is so nice to finally be able to share

that experience with people who can personally identify with it.

My daughter, , is nine years old and was diagnosed in late

2002 with HFA. is very " high-functioning, " but that hasn't

exactly worked out as a blessing. She apparently figured out a long

time ago that she was different from other kids and hated it...hated

it so much, in fact, that she spent every ounce of intellectual

energy she had memorizing scripts, social rules and appropriate

character traits for almost every situation.

This may initially sound like a blessing, but it really isn't. For

years, was able to hide her disability from both teachers and

relatives. Although was failing miserably in all academic

subjects, no-one could seem to explain why. She had occasional

outbursts and meltdowns, but it wasn't until she was 7-8 years old

that her social behavior began to seem inappropriate for her age. In

many instances, she was still using the scripts, social rules and

character traits she'd memorized from shows like The Rugrats, Dora

the Explorer, Barney, Sesame Street, etc. She was maturing

physically, but not intellectually or emotionally.

Currently, the focus for her family and educators has become a sort

of warp-speed, catch-up game. If she had started receiving services

at an earlier age, she would probably be functioning closer to age

level right now. Instead, she's become the ultimate mime...very good

at pretending to understand what is going on around her, while

actually only imitating the behavior of others.

It is very hard for us (her family and educators) to evaluate exactly

what REALLY understands vs. what she has memorized by rote.

She tends to ask the same, memorized questions (varying from person

to person) and usually gives the same, rehearsed answers to questions

asked of her. It makes me wonder just how much of the world around

her she truly experiences and, if so, to what level.

Anyway, that's where we are right now. Other than the above-

mentioned issues, also has sleep disturbances, food

obsessions, a compulsory need to act out the opening credits of her

favorite TV shows and generally prefers the company of adults, or

much younger children, with whom she plays the role of the

caretaker/Mommy.

has an older sister (12) and a younger brother (8) who try

very hard to understand her needs and limits, but are never-the-less

tempted to strangle her every time she disruptively acts out a TV

show. ;-}

Again, it is wonderful to have a place where we can all share our

experiences and discoveries. I hope to be able to meet (even if

only by e-mail) each and every one of you. God Bless!

I wish that alot. donelle's daughter is same age and almost the same,

but she lives in Calif I think. Figures that we would all be almost as

far away as possible. The closest to maryland i've been is Emerald

Nope, I've never been to Emerald Isle. Went on a family cruise

summer of 2002. We drove all the way to Florida for that one! I

love driving, just never seem to have the money to go very far (LOL).
