Both Hands and a Flashlight is a blog for parents whose children are or may be on the autism spectrum. We believe there's nothing 'wrong' with any of our children. They are just striving to overcome many challenges, and they are perfect just as they are. This is a 'come-as-you-are' kind of blog, where the spectrum of emotions is welcome. We aren't super-parents; we're human. We believe the pursuit of becoming the best parents we can is what matters. We believe in the adventure. We believe in never giving up. We believe in advocating fiercely for our children. And first and foremost, we believe in them.
The sharing of information and experiences in dealing with Autism everyday.
The Thinking Person's Guide to Autism (the website and the book) exists to help people with autism and their families make sense of the bewildering array of available autism treatments and options, and determine which are worth their time, money, and energy. We also want to encourage respectful attitudes towards autistics and people with autism.
Parenting Aspergers is a website designed to help parents everywhere who have children with Aspergers.
I am an Über-liberal, nerdy, feminist/womanist, secular humanist, skeptical, pansexual, overeducated, intellectual, white-tea drinking, loudmouthed, agnostic, politically correct, mordant, autistic Jewess who likes to draw, write poetry, study languages and smell flowers.
I write about the hilarious insanity that is my life. This includes parenting, sensory processing disorder, anxiety, ADHD, allergies, asthma, Asperger Syndrome, and whatever else we have cooking at any given moment. Sometimes I write things that not everyone agrees with, but I'm always honest. Let's face it, if all I ever wrote about was sunshine and lollipops, this wouldn't be a very interesting blog.
Hartley's Life With 3 Boys
The emotional journey of raising three boys, dealing with SPD, Autism, Bipolar, Adoption, Marriage and LIFE while trying to keep my sanity and sense of humor.
Jacob was diagnosed with Autism at 3 years of age, although clearly he was affected since birth. This blog documents our family's journey through Autism Remediation. The story has a happy ending -- Jacob's Autism Diagnosis was officially dropped on September 17, 2009, a month shy of Jacob's 9th birthday.
The goal for this blog is to describe what it is like living with Asperger's Syndrome and to focus on the positive aspects of the condition rather than the negative. This blog is personal, non-medical, (reasonably) non-technical and not affiliated with any religious or other organizations. The overall aim of this blog is to increase the amount of first-hand knowledge about Aspergers.
