I am doing a 4 part series to this on Family Foodies blog for the intern ship I am in. I would really like to hear feed back on this. So please take a look at the first part of the article I have written titled Autistic Kids and Food: Does Food Affect Kids, Really?

Part 2: Autistic Kids and Food: A Link To Food Intolerance

I sat thinking and pondering this morning. Still ticked about the bullying issue with my son. There are several autistic kids in the school. I am wondering am I out of line if I talk to the principal to see if I can get in the lower grades classroom to talk to the kids on their level about autism? There was a huge park issues this summer and I talked to the kids and it worked.

Just wondering your thoughts!

You know what really gets on my nerves is that kids pick on others because they are different. My son gets shoved into an art table by a kid who says my son is so uncool. I guess there is two kids at school that pick on them.

I really need some help with this one as I really don’t know how to put things into words about Autism and Behavior. I know behaviors and autism go hand in hand. To correct a behavior it takes one a lot longer then a normal child. I have been wanting to explain this to my dad. Sorry dad! I am just looking at help in how to put Autism and Behaviors into words. Sometimes I find it really frustrating in how to explain things. When you can pin point a behavior at autism and then a behavior being bad. I hope I am making sense. So please feel free to leave your comments and thoughts. I would greatly appreciate it.
