Parents

iences raising their children are
very different from
one another (Glazzard and Overall
1). Every autistic child might
have similar characteristics but
they are all different so there are
many different methods, in which
they can learn, from a very common
method to a very specific
one. With long hours of work every
day, it is very much possible to
give an autistic child the opportunity
to move forward in their
lives (Alejo). With the support of
health professionals, family members
and most importantly a positive
attitude, raising a child with
autism and providing them a
better future is something that
can surely be attained. My family
is living proof that no disease or
disorder is strong enough to
break a family apart. A disorder
like this can pull and tug but will
never be able to destroy something
as strong as a family bond.
It has not been an easy journey
and I highly doubt that my brother
will ever be 100% cured, but
we are fighting through it. We
are fighting for a better life for
him and we are getting there.
