Haven't seen this yet, but HBO always makes great documentaries. The thing that parents have to understand is that you have to be super involved with your child's learning process. It takes time and effort, but so does everything else worth doing. There is a new web service that just launched - rethink autism. rethink autism has a huge data base of lessons to help treat autism. It's done wonders for people I know on the spectrum, but you do have to be involved.

That was a great movie. I have Aspergers, and I am a musician/singer/songwriter. "Wait a minute, how can you get on stage and play music before an audience if you are autistic?" It just happens I am both autistic and artistic. We auties can do great things.

Here here! I have PDD-NOS and I am very involved with sing/theatre/performing. Just because we have setbacks, doesn't mean we can't achieve!

It's not just the parents, autistic individuals do their best to cope in this world. By that, they endure people who degrade them for either entertainment or for profit. When I was a child, I was the only autistic child in my whole community and I had to put up with a lot of B.S. from my school and from my family. Back then, no one had any expectation for me, but now, I have enormous potential as I could go to some top colleges like Baylor after only one SAT test despite my social problems.
