It's very challenging to meet LGBTQ people. I wouldn't recommend hookup apps. There are some at my work. But, I currently work as a Parking Lot attendant at a very busy supermarket. There really isn't much time to mingle with people because we are expected to remain busy throughout the time we are o...

Last summer, I worked at my local supermarket. I only stayed there for two weeks. I worked in the produce department stocking items in the department. One time, a customer asked me a question I didn't know the answer to. He (the customer) asked if he could buy an entire crate of corn with about 40 s...

Watching LGBT movies/TV shows, having LGBT friends and all of the other things you describe most certainly don't mean one is Gay. Have you considered moving somewhere else? First of all, I identify myself as "straight", but just because I know a few people at my school who are LGBT it does...

I am working at a Giant Eagle Supermarket. I never imagined people would ever feel compelled to thank me for working as a Parking Lot Attendant until COVID-19.

I work for Giant Eagle. (It's a supermarket chain in Pennsylvania.) I work as a Parking Lot Attendant. I started working there that week of Valentine's Day. I never imagined I would hear people thank me for working a job that our society perceives as menial before the COVID-19 pandemic started. Back...

You are damned if you do reveal your diagnosis, you are damned if you don't. I once worked at a retail company where I was removed from the schedule without any prior notice whatsoever. They never addressed whatever it was I did wrong with me. I had to call the next morning and ask why I wasn't on t...

It was a therapeutic summer camp designed for children and teens with ADHD. I believe it still exists now. I believe it was sponsored through the county hospital. What are compliance-based therapies? My parents sent me to a summer day camp back in my elementary school days. It used this point system...

This man resigned from his position back in July I believe. I can only hope he doesn't seek employment at another police department.

I find the whole "quiet hands" thing to be BS! I'm subscribed to Fathering Autism, and I find them to be informational, while still respecting their autistic daughter (she has "low-functioning" non-verbal autism). One thing they said that really earned my respect was that they do...

Yes, the camp was basically used to make me neurotypical. You would lose points for all kinds of things such as complaining, not making eye contact with someone or using inappropriate facial expressions. It was really intended for children with ADHD. What are compliance-based therapies? My parents s...

What are compliance-based therapies? My parents sent me to a summer day camp back in my elementary school days. It used this point system that was basically intended to reward kids for good behavior and punish them for behaviors they deem as "bad." Earning enough points meant you were allo...

I like "Fathering autism." Abigail is a trip! She really has quite the personality! Yes, Abigail does have quite the personality. I love that Pricilla and Asa are direct when Abby misbehaves. However, they don't remain angry at her. Staying angry at your child is only going to want the ch...

Yes, there are some aspects of a child's Autism that just shouldn't be publicly discussed in the way that some of these parenting bloggers do. Some Autism advocates say they shouldn't be publicly discussed at all. Toilet training is one of those subjects. 16 MUST SEE Memes That Nail What It’s Like T...

The only two Autism Parenting channels I have watched are The Chapman Family and FatheringAutism. They both seem like good people and more informed than some of the other blogs I've heard mentioned before. They seem to genuinely want what is best for their children and don't promote things like the ...
