I decided i really should start a blog about what I learn from work, then maybe people would understand the children I work with. Honestly, they never asked to be the way they are, they never asked to not be able to control their selves in crowded situations or change in routine, they never asked to not he able to do basic things we take for granted doing on our own. Trust me they notice when you stare. The truth is, helping these kids has opened up my eyes to how naive people are and how much people judge people who are different. If you took the time you would see these kids have more insight about life than most.
And actually I'm quite thankful my brother is different, without him I probably could not handle this job, and god makes no mistakes I love him just the way he is.
So this blog, is really just a project that i decided to begin.
I would like to get my family to write a few post. Just so we can get some different perspectives.
I do not truly think that people understand the work that goes into a family with special needs.
I have seen the struggles it has put on my mother, but without all her effort my brother would not be overcoming his obstacles he is and has.
My goal is not to scientifically educate you on intellectual disorders but just to give you an insight on the thoughts and the lifestyle that is not as different as you may think.
My family is not that different from yours, and the children i work with are not that different than your family. It may just take some finer planning to make a trip out and away, or it may just need the same routine, the same type of pajamas.
My goal through this blog is to show people that these individuals are not as different as we may think. in fact, they could probaly teach you a thing or two about life just from being so observant.
