It’s almost Autism Awareness month and I just can not comprehend why people are once again allowing themselves to become fixated on whether or not a certain charity organization is a good or bad representation of the Autism Spectrum. Lets face it everyone is different and we all have our own personalities and viewpoints. While we don’t all have to agree on subjects in this particular case it is necessary for everyone to put their differences aside and come together for a common goal which is educating society about this intricate way of life. Most importantly is what kind of mixed message are we sending to the world if we parade around expressing the need for acceptance when in reality we cant even accept and appreciate each other. We must first welcome and respect one another and our commonalities if we want anyone to hear our voices and take us seriously.
