Labels like that certainly don’t help us get to know the child, do they.
It’s not so much Autism is a label. I consider it as a diagnosis in order for us to help the person. It only becomes a label used in a negative sense.
Good point.
Good on mom to bring out her child’s artistic abilities, focusing on the that while drawing her out of her autism.

Yes! Always focus on Abilities not dis-abilities.
Most true creative artists are abnormal. Most children who are different want more than anything to be just like everyone… and those who are average wish with all their heart to be unique. When we come into this world we’re usually crying. But some are happy for a while, once they get used to this place.
With their abnormalities, they can see what normally can’t. It’s best to be an original and not a carbon copy. I am for your reflection, Shimon.
