What is it like to have autism and can you share your experiences?
Hi, I’m doing a research paper and presentation on autism. I would seriously like to put a 110% on this, so I had an idea to interview someone. Since I don’t know anyone personally who’s autistic, I would like to ask some questions to someone who’s autistic or a parent who have an autistic child.To answer my questions more privately, my email address is nessa048@hotmail.com
For the person who have autism:

*When did you get diagnosed with autism?
*How severe is your autism?
*Was it hard at school and was you comfortable at the school you went to?
*What have your family did to help you through the yrs?
*Is it difficult to do daily activities?
Any stories or comments you would like to share?
For the parents:
*How did knowing that your child have autism affected your life?
*Did you look at your child a different way or thought he/she need special needs?
*How old is you autistic child?
*When did your child get diagnosed with autism?
Do you know of any children who have NOT been vaccinated that ended up with autism?
Autism typically shows up just before age two… I was just wondering if anybody personally knows anyone of the non-vaccinating crowd who has an autistic child who was not vaccinated? Or know of a website that discusses this subject? Any studies done?
Is there any way doctors can test a child for autism?
Can doctors test for autism? Do they just go by the signs or what? Do anyone have any experience in an autistic child? I really need some information here. Can you please help me out?

What homeopathic remedies to do you recommend to treat autism?
My friend has a child who is autistic. They tried the allopathic route without much success. Someone said something to be about homeopathy. We have a store that sells these remedies where I live. I do not know anything about homeopathy. Could someone tell me which remedy might work in improving an autistic child’s functioning?
Do children with autism have social skills?
Does it depend on where they are on the spectrum if they have social skills or not? I am working with an autistic child and he does seem to interact with other children(kind of). He also knows when I am mad(he closes his eyes and sometimes his ears). He is in the first grade. I observe him a lot and I know when he is in a world of all his own and that nothing I say will even matter. He seems to have a preference to me as well. While we were in line the other day for lunch, he held my wrist and stroked my arm. Refer me to help or tell me what you know. I am interested in knowing more about autism. I was under the impression that they lacked social skills, but do they all lack social skills?
