OMG - I can't even imagine. This girl is my age - first to be abducted at 11 in front of her helpless stepfather, then to find out that she is alive, been kept living in tents in the backyard of her abductors home, raped and lord...

Nikigirl613 I feel the same way. It is a curse and a blessing all at once. By living these 18 years like this, she endured horrible things, as did her children I'm sure, and completely changed from the person she was. But, at the same time, thank god she's alive, and out,...

Nikigirl613 I would imagine she would have post traumatic stress disorder as well. Her abductors were sick individuals, and I feel just horrible for everyone involved. I saw that same program - that's what made me post this - wasn't that horrific?!? I couldn't believe...

Nikigirl613 It is absolutely horrible out there. My son is going to be 6 next month, and he is always saying to me its ok mommy, I can walk on my own, I won't go anywhere. It is tough to explain to a child without scaring them that its not him that I'm nervous about - its...

Nikigirl613 LMAO - I will never forget when my son was about 4 and I walked in to find him putting on my blush. I was like ok, is this ok because he could be a makeup artist, or should I maybe get him away from the makeup... it's so funny - they just want to do what you...

Hello, I have a soon to be 6 year old son who has autism. He has made absolutely fantastic progress over the past 4 years, and he is doing wonderful. He had early intervention at the house for for about 7 months until he turned...

Nikigirl613 Thank you so much! It's funny, I just read an article on a study that was done to determine whether or not the mother of an autistic child has more stress than the parent of a "neuro-typical" child. Surprise surprise, the answer was yes. And while I absolutely...

Nikigirl613 He was almost 3 - he took to his tutor very quickly. The first day she was at the house he looked at us like someone understands what's happening here! From there it was tough to get going, but once he got down the first sign and started to realize that he...

Nikigirl613 I don't think anyone knows better than the parent of an autistic child how the tiniest thing can be the absolute biggest accomplishment/breakthrough. My son didn't lose his words, he never spoke. He seemed to develop just fine until the age of 1, and then...

Nikigirl613 I completely agree with you. He is very high functioning, and I'm very thankful for that. Only time will tell, but I do hope is is able to function independently as an adult. I try to do everything I can to help him to be the best that he can be. He is doing...

Nikigirl613 Thank you. I agree - and I look at it like this. My son is the most fantastic child I have ever known, and he makes my life wonderful everyday. So I don't care if it is harder, because he is the one who is missing out, not us!

I am just curious as to which method of communication that people prefer and for what reason the prefer that method. For me, it varies on the mood, where I am and what I'm doing, and if it's a lot to say or a deep conversation or...

Nikigirl613 That seems to be the problem. With technology comes ease in life, but also a de-personalization (if that's even a word, if not it is now, lol) which is sad in some ways, aggravating in others, like with automated phone systems... But I think that sometimes the...

Nikigirl613 I think you and I should live together, lmao. I live with my son, and 2 other family members who seem to think that just because they pay rent they don't have to clean, so regardless of the fact that they are adults, they are like extra children, lol. Worst...

Nikigirl613 Also, if this just does not seem to be working, there is a board that you can make where you take small pictures of everything - bathroom, food, juice, toys, etc and you velcro them on to the board, or you can do it in like a binder type book for him, it...

Nikigirl613 Congratulations on your quit! I love to hear from people who have stuck with it for a long time. I have no desire to go back right now, but I worry about the years to come. Right now, I'm feeling better and better as each day goes on, and even in the most...
