You have a different perspective than most folks, though, Warren. You work with developmentally-at-issue people, so you see things with a more tolerant filter. Many parents of Autistic children are still developing theirs! I enjoy the autism ribbon, too. :) Obviously.

I Know that these kids/adults didn't ask for this and it is not up to us to judge them. It is easy to do: Despite how 'accepting' our society wants to be, the reality does not often sync up with that idea. We can wear buttons, support foundations, throw money at the various causes, and it all helps. But in the end we really need to treat the people we are suppose to protect with dignity, on an individual basis. Even when it is hard and you might be embarrassed, or running late, or just had a fight with your family...those are the best times to stop and help the peole that need help. It shows that you are a person of quality. BTW I love the ribbon they use for autism. I’ve always tried to be patient, even when I don’t feel like it.
