Going back to what you could do for your autistic child, you could do a number of things, but of course, the most important thing is to positively emotionally encourage them. And tra-and give them hugs, anyways, even if they don't want it. They will feel the love eventually, cause I know I have, my mom never stopped hugging me.
Another thing you can do with them is floor time. You get on the floor and you play with them. You should build Lego sets. I had my own city made out of Legos. It was a very big city too. It was pretty much an early version of my city of CWCville that I housed my electric hedgehog Sonichu and Rosechu in, in the comics I had drawn. I put all the bricks and pieces in the boxes under here, but they were over there, on the other side of my room. One big city, it was massive, it was great.
Egana-and of course there's also therapy, psychiatry, and special autism places. I highly encourage mainstreaming 'em. Letting be norm-letting 'em try to fit in with the normal places, like high-like high school and middle school. I fit in perfectly after I, I so did. But never EVER send them to a mental institution. It's just wrong, it's a dark, evil place. I was almost forced into there once but my parents would not have it.
Anyway, on a more modern interest note, according to the, uh, Wikipedia article, the internet helps autistic individuals bypass nonverbal cues and emotional sharing they find hard to deal with. They also apparently point online communities and work with locally.
Listen, on extended personal experience with internet socializing, I can tell you the truth of the internet. There are a lot of sick minded, twisted, evil, dark, sloppy, gross, weird individuals out there, and you can never tell who they are from anybody else, cause they hide behind their mother's skirts of the nominite that is also know as the internet. They go online talking to random people, deceiving, tricking, blackmailing! Just so they can drag our clear, just so they can drag our once clean names through the worst mud, blood and bodily fluids, makes me sick. UGHH!
They are ungrateful immature. They need to grow up. The-they-they, even range from the young, the teenage, even some adults! I swear! I had my own website for my Sonichu comics, but then they hacked in there and then, took 'em away! I grabbed it back, but after a while I got tired and decided, took the websites down myself.
And I also had my own Myspace and Facebook, gone! They can hack your computers, your game consoles, laptops, cell phones, and maybe even your i-pods! They just do not let up. I have been a victim of their ways. I nev, I have never socialize online again. And I screen my phone calls, I hardly ever answer my phone call anymore. And I am emotionally damaged by them. Just this, ter-pitiful. Horrifying!
Online gaming, on the other hand, is different. The other players, they just come and go while I accomplish my video game goals. No friendships are made. And information searches and shopping online is fine. It is the social websites like Facebooks and Myspace that are travesties. The only way to socialize is in real life. [Volume raises] Fellow autistic people! I encourage you to man and woman up respectively! Go out into the real world, and make real friends with full, great quality friendships! Do it now!
Socializing tips and also little more history on myself, to be revealed in the follow-into the following parts, in the remainder of this tutorial, so stay tuned. Thank you
