Re: my child types...

Thanks ABCD and your daughter.  I've wanted to hear your daughter since
we first talked two years ago.  She's as wonderful as I anticipated.

When I first came on the autism forums (Jan '96) I had the same
experience you described, but probably even rougher due to the setting
and my advocacy.  I used to get a break from it by going to a spiritual
website called "SpiritWeb".  They had a great group there that had
nothing to do with autism and it helped me get grounded with what I was
doing in my autism advocacy.
