Oh my GOD some of those kids look like my son.

This is great.

Autism means this or its opposite, depending on the person. There is no one thing that ALL autistics are like, and no one thing all autistics are not like.

I hope Autism Speaks can see their way to using images like these.

the comments section was not too kind,
no adults, all aspies are children...

what about a homeless guy sitting on the pavement
staring morosely ahead while smiling couples walk by
and talk gaily to each other?[about USA's got talent]
or a nerdy engineer in a mad inventors workshop? :heart:
