I say unfortunately because it has caused him a lot of issues. Efan often comes to me and says things like 'when you look at this what do you see?' then proceeds to tell me how HE sees it - all the details, all at once, always. A normal brain will scan a pen,and every time it sees something that looks vaguely like a pen it will automatically say 'pen'. With Efan, and many autistic people, their brain scans the pen every single time and will only say 'pen' once it's satisfied on all points. That's why they sometimes seem 'slow' in fact they're not slow at all but processing information much faster than we are. It's also why they have meltdowns in situations where there is a lot of stimuli. Oops, rambling on about things that aren't important. What I meant to say was - thank you :)Nephy's Worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12677130973931453911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7131988310809850503.post-41782619030116978182015-04-13T03:23:21.100+01:002015-04-13T03:23:21.100+01:00RJ just checking do you have a preferred Autism ch...RJ just checking do you have a preferred Autism charity you support?AiboPalshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15132133379854481304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7131988310809850503.post-64168316461848289902015-04-06T19:18:46.418+01:002015-04-06T19:18:46.418+01:00Thanks for sharing this.

My kids observed autism awareness at school yesterday - we never did things like that when I was a kid (back in ancient history ;-). And my son has a girl in his class who has autism and he and other kids in his class interact and play with her just as they do with everyone else. They are aware she is "different," but they seem to take that just as part of life. When I was young, I don't think this would have been true. I remember the "different" kids were put in separate classes and sometimes teased meanly. I am so glad to see progress being made.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01153739860343193475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7131988310809850503.post-11812418739796882892015-04-03T02:40:51.180+01:002015-04-03T02:40:51.180+01:00Super post, RJ.Super post, RJ.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15624393814322042789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7131988310809850503.post-74885895133032315652015-04-03T02:01:07.673+01:002015-04-03T02:01:07.673+01:00Thank you for sharing your insights about your son...Thank you for sharing your insights about your son.

I think there are elements of autistic behaviour in most people to a greater & lesser extent. I hope Matt's comment about his brain is more about being 16 & at that awkward age and less about having autism. Your blog tour, this post & the way you are sO open about living w Matt are all so powerful & brilliant. Matt will grow to be an amazing different interesting adult just like others with and without autism.
