Why We Talk
Everyone in the world can not talk except for humans. Parrots talk, but they don’t use real words to carry out messages to one another using sentences. In cartoons, it’s fun to hear the animals talk or any other thing that talks as well, but sometimes when they talk, they seem human. I think that […]

I am proud to say that I’m one of the many many people who adores music. It really sets the mood if ya think about it. For example, if I listen to happy music, it makes me happy. Sad music makes me sad, and mad music makes me mad. Music I think really truly sets […]

Kids who have autism avoid eye contact a lot of times, and I was one of those kids who avoided eye contact with a lot of people. There are many reasons why kids who have autism would avoid eye contact with other people. Here is a small list on why I think the reason is. […]

I’ve been noticing lately that there have been a relationship with the water and with people who have autism.
