I am new to this forum.
I am a mother of a 7 year old son with Autism.
I also have a 2 year old who is a puzzle.
I am married for 8 years. My husband is a Mechanical Engineer.
I am an educational Assistant and I work in a classroom with 9 children. 7 of whom have ASD and 2 have Down Syndrom.

I'm excited to start searching this site and learn from everyone here.

Thanks.

Tessa-Jane

Hi Tessa-Jane, welcome.

I rather like the idea of "a 2 year old who is a puzzle". But there again, I like puzzles.

I hope you find this place enlightening. I certainly have/am. At any one moment there always seems to be a hundred or so members actively reading/posting. Ask and it shall be answered - usually within a minute or so.

Thanks everyone for all your warm welcomes.
I really appreciate it.
I have been so interested and you have taught me so much already. I have already gained more understanding for my son.
