Greetings dear friends of this beautiful #motherhood community, today I will write to you about a topic to reflect on because prejudice and criticism regarding autistic children and their parents have always existed, without even putting themselves in the place of these for just a minute and without knowing the situations, sacrifice and situation that they live daily.
People tend to judge us as parents for not being like them, because our world when we have an autistic child is not like that of others, they worry about taking their children to school, taking them to baseball, and buying toys for them, we parents of a child with autism we divide our days between therapies, psychologists, neurologists, nutritionists, school, diets, work at home to support the child's learning, and to this we add our housework, our other children and our work.
It is very easy to judge and criticize but how good it would be to put ourselves in the place of others.
Those children whom you criticize very little go out to play because among so many things they don't have time, they don't go out to play baseball or to the park, many times they don't sleep, they live on a strict diet, they go through uncontrollable crises and they look for a way to be accepted and communicate with us.
En mi experiencia semanalmente vamos 2 días a terapias de lenguaje, ocupacional y psicología, 2 días al colegio a dónde asistimos juntos pues las maestras no están preparadas para atenderlo a el con todo su grupo, una vez cada tres meses al neurólogo, pediatra, trabajamos en casa dos horas de diarias con actividades de atención y lenguaje.
Muchas veces lo noto cansado pero se que esta lucha nos traerá grandes frutos a futuro.
In my experience, weekly we go 2 days to language, occupational and psychology therapies, 2 days to the school where we attend together because the teachers are not prepared to attend him with his whole group, once every three months to the neurologist, pediatrician, we work at home two hours a day with attention and language activities.
Many times I notice him tired but I know that this fight will bring us great fruits in the future.
Está es nuestra vida y la aceptó y amo cada día y cada viaje que hacemos juntos, y con la mayor sinceridad les digo que soy feliz y no lo cambiaría por nada, pero solo me gustaría que algún día en vez de juzgar podamos tratar de comprender y valorar a esos pequeños luchadores y a sus padres, el mundo fuera muy diferente si existiera un poco más de sentir y sencibilidad por lo que no conocemos.
Las familias con un niño autista son familias luchadoras, no somos perfectas pero tratamos de hacer las cosas lo mejor que podemos.
This is our life and I accepted it and I love every day and every trip that we make together, and with the greatest sincerity I tell you that I am happy and I would not change it for anything, but I only wish that one day instead of judging we can try to understand and value those little fighters and their parents, the world would be very different if there were a little more feeling and sensitivity for what we do not know.
Families with an autistic child are fighting families, we are not perfect but we try to do things the best we can.
Dads and moms, put your hand on your heart and please don't judge if you haven't been through a similar situation, don't judge if you don't know something, don't judge before knowing the root of a behavior or action.
