This group is for parents. relatives, siblings and teachers of autistic children to share their own experiences of their gifted children

 
Hello and welcome,

Are you a parent with an autistic child or children? We are.. and we are proud to be..Maybe you know someone who has an autistic child.. Or are you a friend, a carer.. maybe you have a niece, nephew, cousin or grandchild who has autism.. How is your family/friends dealing with it?. We are asking other parents, because all cultures tend to handle or do things differently... We wanted to know is there any information you could share that has worked for you? Something like books, cd's and videos can't tell you. Maybe your an autistic teenager or adult and you would like to share your experience of growing up in your family.

Your true life experience can help someone else unlock the door to their child's world. We have learnt so much from talking to other parents... So can you..

This site will also let you know what help is available to you as a parent of a child with autism. Help that if you don't know where to look, you would never know it was there for you and your child.

Our beautiful gifted children deserve the very best out of life. So let's help each other through this journey with our wonderful extra special children. Knowledge is power..We can help each other learn more. PLEASE NO TIME WASTERS as there are genuine families that need support and information with regards to our cause.

Thank you so much for joining this website.

Liesje & Venessa




PLEASE NOTE:- THAT WE DO NOT TOLERATE OR SUPPORT ANY SORT OF PROFOUND LANGUAGE OR DISRESPECT WHATSOEVER! AND IF THIS REQUEST IS IGNORED, THE PERSON WILL BE WARNED AND IF OUR REQUEST IS STILL IGNORED THEY WILL BE BANNED FROM THE WEBSITE. WE ARE HERE TO HELP AND SUPPORT EACH OTHER AND OUR CHILDREN. NOT TO BE INSULTED'.

Thank you for your co-operation.
