[QUOTE="Fran, post: 308833, member: 3"] Our kids on the spectrum definitely change our perception and understanding of ourselves and our expectations of our first born child. It is very humbling to acknowledge to yourself that you were wrong in your assumptions but it is also very freeing. I wish he could have been free of the burden that carrying secrets causes much earlier in Jett's life. He would have enjoyed his life and his son's life much sooner. Regardless, he was a good father to his son and loved him. If he did not want his son to be a public spectacle and a victim of pity, I can't fault him for that. Lying unfortunately causes a downward spiral. It would have been easier to say "my children are none of anyone's business and are off limits to the public". Which is true. [/QUOTE]
