My son...I have just been having the same feelings! My son, Liam, is almost 4, sounds like he stims a bit more, but he mouths every thing he can. But I digress. I have reached a point where I am so tired of explaining to everyone why he stims, and even guilty. It's nobodies business. It should be Liam's discussion to tell them. What would he say if given the opportunity?<br />Great article.Artisnotanaccidenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07459551747683405826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2959253662881047710.post-91138810769842937642012-04-11T21:21:50.423-05:002012-04-11T21:21:50.423-05:00Hi!

You will notice that Liam's wearing a shirt with a slogan in this picture (from the same person who bought the autism shirt), but I think this one is milder (and, can I admit, it was all that was clean at the moment in a whirlwind day of post-messy-meal-pre-therapy-clothes-changes?). : )Jamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02833713953083800394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2959253662881047710.post-9838636265574689912012-04-11T21:19:02.948-05:002012-04-11T21:19:02.948-05:00Patty, I'm with you on those bracelets!

I think they are a wonderful way for people in our lives to show support and they raise awareness of autism in the larger community, but as a constant reminder in our lives-- not for me. <br />Thanks for the comment! : )Jamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02833713953083800394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2959253662881047710.post-89305457242725800932012-04-11T21:11:50.377-05:002012-04-11T21:11:50.377-05:00Thanks Katrina! ; )Thanks Katrina! ; )Jamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02833713953083800394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2959253662881047710.post-35528320824329491292012-04-11T20:07:59.138-05:002012-04-11T20:07:59.138-05:00Awesome article!
