Sports

Being parent of an autistic son, we are willing to know which sports most of the children prefer to participate in. I know it depends on individual person but just want to know the experiences of indivual persons and/or their parents. My son is 4 years old and love swimming and cycling.

  • I have been doing Tai Chi for about three and half years now and it is one of the best thigs I ever started. I love everything about it from the silk reeling excersises, push hands and the form which is also like Big Jane I have Aspergers so the repetitive movements of the form are comforting and just what I need. I also study the martial side of it which brings a whole new dimension to what you have learned and soon find out that the form is in the martial side and vice versa and one helps with the other. It has helped a lot with a back injury I got at work as well as helping with how I'm feeling mentally at the time.

    I'm also a pro wrestling nut and have often fancied trying some lessons but I think after a few body slams or suplex's my back would let me down so I will have to stay a lifelong fan!!

    My other sports passion would be basketball which I played at school and would have 24/7 if humanly possible growing up! I was also lucky enough to play for some of the RAF bases where I was posted once I had left school. I'm still a huge fan of the game allthough do miss the Bird and Magic era.
