Jennifer-72 Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Just got back from ds's first speech arts recital. Ds8 who has ASD and anxiety, had told me he didn't think he wanted to perform. I was expecting for us to just go and watch the other performers, so he could see how it all worked. Well, ds decided to give it a go. He got up in front of 75 people and did an incredible job of his poem! He spoke so well. So very proud of him! Best of all he is really proud of himself!

I felt this proud when my ds tested for a yellow belt in karate. It is these sometimes "little" things with children with ASD that are so big to us parents. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
