[QUOTE="Shari, post: 385216, member: 1848"] It is so hard for them, anyway, why does anything have to be harder? So defeating. Was interesting, Temple Grandin said jr high and high school was the absolute worst time of her life. She said in her day, kids called her names and she could run away. She would go ride her horse. Now, they do it with technology, and it never goes away, you can't run away from it. In her mind, the word on a computer screen will always be there, will always be out there to be seen and "heard" and even if she's not hearing it, she still knows its there. She also said dealing with teenagers is a life skill she could live without. Some kids need to just go from being kids to being adults. Folks on the spectrum are like that. Don't know how it helps, just random thoughts in my brain. Poor Tigger. And what was the teacher thinking??? [/QUOTE]
