I used to teach kids with disabiliteis such autism how to swim. It was hard at first but I learned a lot from them. They made me more patient and showed me to never take my life for granted. I showed be thankful for what I have. They are amazing. I loved them a lot. I miss them. Even if they couldn't communicate with me verbally they could understand me and I could understand them. Great kids.

I'm so glad Jeremy finally got his date! I wonder how they all are now. The artist seemed so sweet. I liked the comedian too.

This was a great episode, my child has autism and he is in between the spectrums of autism that you showcased, this episode actually shows what you can expect from children with autism, some people may feel sorry or even anguish for these children, when in actuality, it actually gives parents HOPE!!! it lets you see other children and shows what you can look forward to and to actually prepare you for hurdles and challenges that you may have to look forward to whether it be using the litewriter, handling tantrums or fit episodes, or even having them embrace their disability and showing awareness. I am glad mtv did an episode on autism and hope this isn't the last... and even if they would branch out and show a wider age group my child isn't this old as of yet that is why this is so educational for my family.
