		<description>Dear Nandini:

I salute you for your courage and candor in posting this article. In my limited view of the world, I find that parents of autistic children have their own barriers to overcome in acknowledging the elephant in the room. A big part of this is their hope that their child would pass off for &#039;normal&#039;. 

In today&#039;s world where 1 in 150 children may fall in the autistic spectrum, it is time parents of all stripes to understand the realities and at least be aware of how they could respond. I appreciate your offering us these insights.

In closing, I&#039;d like to recall a rather amazing parent and soccer coach, Kevin. We started the season with this kid who would not take direction, would be extremely disruptive and refuse to cooperate at the most critical times. Kevin did not cut him any slack nor did he show any sign of resentment - a tough ask for a coach as competitive as he is. At the end of the season this child was as proud hoisting his trophy as the rest were and if you didn&#039;t know it, you could not tell he was any different from the rest of his team.

I daresay there are a few mor parents of Kevin&#039;s sort of out there.

Cheers

		<description>Dear WNI, 
This article has come not a day soon! Though  written with reference to people with autism, at many levels this article is a behaviour Bible for all. Yes, we could all learn from kids who are exposed to disabled children. And empathy is recognition and acceptance. Beautifully written. Kudos to you!</description>

		<description>Excellent article Nandini. The 8 thoughtful points you have written in this article can be printed and passed around as flyers!

A lot of folks don&#039;t realize that a simple understanding attitude towards the family can make such a huge different for the parents as well as the kid in that particular situation.  Your article rocks !</description>
