A letter to parents of children with developmental disabilities on behalf of their children.
Into the book
Parents who believe they must fight and win against autism spectrum disorder or that failure to do so will result in defeat may be making the mistake of fighting an important and necessary part of their child's life.
To avoid this trap, parents must first be kind to themselves and then share that kindness with their children.”
--- p.
10
“Behaving like a five-year-old and having the intellectual functioning of a five-year-old are two entirely different things.
Regardless of one's intellectual age, developmental disabilities, like physical disabilities, are part of a person's identity.
“If we fail to recognize a developmental disability as part of a person’s identity, we will always view them as ‘childish’ and ‘deficient,’ even when they become adults.”
--- p.
17
“Are parents really okay with telling their children, ‘It’s okay to have a disability, it’s okay to be special’?”
--- p.
35
“I go to a regular middle school, and every girl at school tries to touch my hair and smell it.
The girls were terrified and ran away, and I even got a few warnings at school.
“They said that if it doesn’t get better, I’ll have to transfer schools. What should I do?”
--- p.
44
"Don't people with developmental disabilities, who lack communication skills, find it difficult to make their own decisions? How can we respect their right to self-determination?"
--- p.
106
"How would I feel if someone said they urgently needed to urinate and asked for directions to the bathroom, and I brought them a glass of water? Or if they said they were thirsty and I took them to the bathroom? And if that happened repeatedly, how would I react?"
--- p.
146
“Don’t try to force your child into mediation.
Tailor intervention strategies to your child's individual needs and wants.
Respect the child's individual characteristics, not just the shortcomings of the disability being treated.
“Our first duty is to understand, respect, and not harm the child.”
To avoid this trap, parents must first be kind to themselves and then share that kindness with their children.”
