Last night a friend of mine asked me a question; "If you were a motivational speaker, and you were in front of a crowd of five-thousand people, what would you tell them about autism?" I found that, even though I have a son with HFA, High Functioning Autism, I was at a loss for words. "Where do I start?" was my thought. There is so much information, so much that we know, and yet so many things we still don't know, that it seems impossible to isolate a defining thought. How about you folks out there? What would you tell others about autism, and your experiences with ASD?
