My husband didn't see that either :) I'm thinking you might be the primary caretaker of a person with Autism if you understood that LOL

Tell me about it. My little guy is obsessed with zombies and monsters, so he watches a Minecraft video of the Thriller dance OVER and OVER and OVER.. I thinks it's killing me.

About the baths and hair washing... Maddy hates them both. We have resorted to a handheld shower head (like in the hospitals, but MUCH cheaper). He can stand in the tub without water being in it... No toys in it either. We just wet him, wash him, rinse him and get him the hell out of there. He is also obsessed with Scooby Doo and I found some Body Wash at the store that was Scooby Doo. That seems to help.About the baths and hair washing... Maddy hates them both. We have resorted to a handheld shower head (like in the hospitals, but MUCH cheaper).

Our problem was that he saw a SpongeBob Episode where Spongebob pulls the "main drain" and the whole town disappears through the drain. He isn't verbal enough to understand how that is impossible, or for me to show him how a toy WON'T go down.
Maddy is only almost 4 so he is still little enough that I can put him in the sink some nights. He is fine with that for some reason.

I don't think you sounded asshole-ish at all. You said what you are thinking without managing to insult others. Good job!
I don't really give a fig about Autism Speaks, so I'm not defending them by all means. With that said, I believe they picked blue because of the 4x more boys than girls thing. At least that's what the news said.

Oh my gosh. The sensory seeking. It is rampant in my house too. I just wrote a similar post. It's funny how sometimes we (Moms) are thinking the same things.

Thank you for such an amazing post. Also, thank you for understanding my excitement (somewhat) for finally getting that stupid box checked!

HECK YES. I would no doubt, be inside my child's mind for any length of time. I would stay there forever if it meant he got to come out. I see him struggle so much, and hurt so deeply. What mom wouldn't do anything to help her child avoid pain and suffering. On the short term I think it would help me to understand where he is coming from and what he needs. On the long term, I would volunteer to take his place in a second. I'm just not sure that would be the right decision for him.

AHA!!! That explains so much! I had no idea they did this. Not that I am opposed to being environmentally friendly, but I really like eating off of clean dishes. I am going to try this vinegar. I thought my dishwasher was going bad LOL. Thanks so much!
