    I can understand why you feel bad asall you have is so-called professionals telling you what they think is not right with your son.

    Being autistic is just a difference. Many of us have good and useful lives and wouldn't change who we are. The best thing you can do for your son is to treat how he is as normal and don't fret because he's different or learns in a different way. Encourage him to love and explore his difference. That is the biggest gift you can give him because it will build his self worth and his confidence. And that is priceless.

    Don't cry for your son, he is perfect as he is. Help us adjust the world to fit, its a big ask and we need all the help we can get.
