Two inspiring articles on autism and adolescence

Dear everyone:

Please check out two inspiring and empowering articles on my latest interest in autism and adolescence on my Awakening Minds Website.

a. "Bedwetting: Teenage Rebellion, Autistic Style": This is a humorous and reflective piece of the lessons I learnt in overcoming Sebastien's deliberate bedwetting behaviour. From this starting point, I talk about the challenges for parents to deal with letting go of their kids with special needs so that they can grow up.

b. "The Skating Milestone: Go Sebastien! Go!": This is a heartwarming piece about my sense of pride and gladness in Sebastien's unexpected enjoyment of inline skating. In this essay, I talk about how my feeling of pride in Sebastien who has fought hard to be a confident young man was further transformed with his foray into inline skating.


Please feel free to share these articles with others and check out the rest of the Website.
