[QUOTE="1 Day At a Time, post: 363897, member: 3704"] Thanks for sharing MWM, I know exactly what you mean. difficult child seems like a sweet guy. I'm sure that he would never make fun of anyone. Our difficult child wouldn't. Our difficult child also has great difficulty with writing. He had to write a personal reflection in an English class last semester. He really struggled with it, and he finally he asked me for assistance. That was the first time ever that he had done so. He wrote an amazing reflection about his pet bird that our neighbor gave him when he was released from the hospital some years back. We really need to send her a copy, the thoughts within it are so beautiful. Who knew? I think that folks on the spectrum have many good qualities - although our culture often only seems to note the difficult ones. They are generally extremely loyal and faithful to those that they love. They really are incapable of artifice, and they define the word dependable. We worry very much about our difficult child's future as well, but day by day he seems to mature in small steps. We're trying very hard to point him in the right direction without overwhelming him. I have a feeling that our difficult child will surprise us in the future with his growing capabilities, and I'm sure yours will as well. Valerie [/QUOTE]
