Every day for the past few months, going to the refrigerator has been a learning experience. Yup, I said the refrigerator as strange as it might be. You see, my wife found what is called "11 Life Lessons That I've Learned From Raising A Child With Autism" and stuck it on the fridge. I don' yet know if it was intended for me to learn a lesson, but if that was the intent, it worked. I want to share this with you as maybe it will be helpful to you.
11 Life Lessons That I've Learned From Raising A Child With Autism
By - Laura Shumaker
1. There is no such thing as a "weirdo". People that seems weird have challenges that are hard to understand.
2. People who seem different are probably very lonely.
3. There is nothing more valuable in this world than a well trained and compassionate teacher.
4. There are many more nice people in the world than there are not so nice people.
5. It's important to be flexible.
6. There is a fine line between patience and anger.
7. The house doesn't always have to be clean and neat.
8. Yelling is bad. It always makes things worse.
9. Humor helps. A lot.
10. Everyone you meet has a story of their own.
11. Kindness and praise can defuse a difficult situation magically.
