Children
of Parents
with
Autism
- [Life
Matters]
"...
imagine
for a
moment
that the
person you
love who
has autism
is your
mother or
father.
You are a
child with
a parent
who
suffers
all the
social
dysfunction
of autism,
and you
are living
in a world
before
there was
widespread
recognition
of the
condition.
That is
the
experience
of Judy
Singer,
she has
realised
as an
adult that
her mother
suffered
from
autism.
She’s
still
coming to
terms with
what that
meant to
her as a
child and
has
reached
out to
find there
are many
other
people who
have been
through
similar
experiences."

"I know of nobody who is purely Autistic or purely neurotypical.
Even God had some Autistic moments, which is why the planets all spin."
