I just listened to the first 8 minutes of a 2017 Australian interview with Tony Attwood and it was so offensive I had to turn it off. I'm NT and my partner and son are Autistic and I felt utterly dismayed at what it might have felt for either of them to hear themselves being mocked. I'd always had a sense that I wasn't on the same page as the good professor, but now I'm sure!Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03121848407269054654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3967073850231837312.post-49385770747810087042017-04-16T20:50:25.595-04:002017-04-16T20:50:25.595-04:00Well said!

Anything can tip the balance. As someone on the spectrum raising someone on the spectrum and another child as well,and supporting my family, i MUST keep an even keel!!!! Anyway, this is mostly to say:b e tender with yourself. Moving is considered one of the top few impactful life events, and I venture to say it's even bigger for highly sensitive people.
