Do you all intend to live forever of just farm your adult kids out to a foster home when you can't keep them safe, loved and happy anymore?
Autistic kids are wonderful. Passive parents stink!

When in doubt, ask an autistic. Chances are, they're obsessed with what you need to know.
Autism Speaks will NEVER speak for me

When you adopt a dog, the Humane Society makes you think about the dog's welfare more than when you have a kid, disabled or not.

I am not the one in this thread who wants kids! I already know I gave way too many disabilities. Too physically disabled, too autistic.
I am speaking for the creator of this thread. Not myself.
My final word is. I don't want kids

That's the wisest and the most humanist decision.
You can always adopt a child and raise as he's your own too.
Raising a child from a baby would be too much, maybe i could adopt a later aged child around 12 who is semi-self functional and does not need much physical help, more someone who just needs guidance in life.
But even that may prove to be a real challenge. if anything i would love to volunteer at a childrens hospital. i love medical atmospheres and it would be fun to be one of the volunteers who gets to show the kids inside of the operating room before their scheduled operation if they chose the "child life operating room tour"

I have the same worries, i had classic functioning autism as a child, moderate-severe, but now that im very high functioning, i want to have children as well, and I know it runs through my family as well. I know whatever god gives me, i'll do as much as i can to make sure that child is happy no matter what the diagnosis. I also have tourettes, which is genetic as well, and i dont have a severe case of that, but my doctor said that could pass down as well, and can be ten times more severe then me, which terrifies me as well. I also have other things that will be passed down, but i wont let that stop me from having a child. See with me, i just hope the child gets my NT bf's genes more then mine, but either way i'm prepared hehe.
Anyways what im saying is don't let genetics stop you from doing what you want, and its not always true that it will pass down to your child, might just pass down to your grandchildren or your great grandchildren. Also if you want to adopt, nothing wrong with adopting either, i was adopted, so yea you dont always know what your going to get hahaha.

Advice: Adopt.

I would be a proactive parent...I'm only 16, I think it's pretty darn proactive of me to look at my (non-exisent of course) child's future. I don't understand what I've said here to make you think that way
:(:(
