Michael I hope your circumstances improve soon, your doing great man, it's been great sharing thoughts and opinions on here with you and I remember that pm very well, it's amazing really your in the other side of the world and we can share these thoughts and feelings. Cesar first of all congratulations on becoming a dad recently, its the most amazing gift on earth. Your words are so kind and full of hope and I appreciate them more than you could know.
    It's a great thing mate, really is
  2. hi dean, my friends have an autistic son now 8 years old. He was really withdrawn to human interaction but super curious about inanimate objects when he was diagnosed at 3. Over the years they worked so hard to mainstream him and they just kept interacting with him and encouraging him to be self sufficient. My friend made sure the pubic school system got a navigator for him to attend the normal classes.You would not believe what a wonderful little boy he is now, he is still autistic but he is a happy child and in many ways seems genius. Best wishes.
  3. Hey site owners/mods plz read this was talking to Dean on PM about his situation and myn and thought , we all have issues, ups and downs. So... Why not ask if we can get some official U2Start wrist bands made up. White font on a black band that simply says "the U2Start family ♥"

    I know I could just make my own but I think it would be cool to have them so we can all have the same band and represent this wonderful site around the world, but like Dean said in PM (hope you don't mind) "we agree and disagree on stuff but when it's comes to important stuff we are here for each other".
    I think it would be good to having something that represents it.

    Hi peatiedog thank you for your response and that's amazing to hear most importantly that your friends son is happy and also that he is a bit of a genius. It's incredible what can be achieved and that description you gave of him being 'withdrawn to human interaction but super curious about inanimate objects' is very similar to my daughter so certainly increases hope of what her future may hold. I really appreciate the response.
