This is what Autistic looks like... (Marita @StuffWithThing)

I read the HollyRod blog post a couple of days ago with sadness.
We are not about to let you attempt to make “autistic” the new “R-word” under our watch.
No. We will not let that happen.

This is what autistic looks like in my world.

Happy girls laughing with their Dad:
 

 9 years old and growing up too fast, just like all children do:

 

 7 years old and loving to dress up:

  Sisters who love each other:


What does Autistic look like in your world? Please write a post and show the world Autistic is not an insult, Autistic is beautiful.

  1. Your daughters are adorable. I live in Brazil, I'm a teacher and I have had 2 autistic students in my class before, they are nothing but amazing.

    I ended up here following a link on Stuff With Thing FB page and I'm glad I did. The photos are really beautiful and this blog is growing to become a big window with a precious view of what Autism really is.

    God bless.
