Image Credit Most parents of children with autism will be familiar with one of the major calling cards of the condition: a tendency towards insular behavior. Children (and adults) with autism have a tendency towards over-focus, zooming in on a subject that interests them to the exclusion of everything else in the world. Persuading your child to step away from this interest can be troublesome; it may even cause arguments. As a result, the idea of exploring the great outdoors with your children is troublesome both, for this reason, and for the fact that heading out on a hike or bike ride is a disruption to their routine-- another issue…

Moving Home With Kids Ain’t Easy; Relocating With Autistic Kids Is Harder Still

After all, the prospect of leaving behind everything they know – from friends to school – can be rather daunting for kids to accept. When a child suffers from autism, though, a whole host of additional issues are thrown into the mix. Still, this cannot stop you from making the move that could open the door to a brighter future for the family.

Does this mean we’re famous? LOL
I wanted to share this because it was really cool and Emmett is super excited. As I've shared previously, I've been using the Nokia Thermo Smart Thermometer to keep track of Emmett fevers. (See How the Thermo Smart Thermometer made our lives easier). We absolutely love this thing and I wrote a very honest review and Emmett was a big part of it.
