Please Don't


There are already a plethora of these blogs on the internet right now, but I needed to say my peace.

Please don’t compare my sons to Adam Lanza.

Please don’t blame a neurological disorder for this heinous crime.

Please don’t make autism or Asperger’s synonymous with mass killings.

Please don’t jump to conclusions about a mother you never met.

Please don’t distance yourself from a child because they have autism.

Please don’t compare the physical outbursts that can be triggered in autistics with a planned massive attack on innocent school children.

Please don’t make it even more difficult to tell you that my sons are autistic.

Please don’t believe everything you read or hear about autism.

Please don’t make my sons and others like them into modern-day lepers.

Please….don’t.
