“It's hard to forget hurtful things, isn't it? Children with autism have good memories. So it's much harder for them to forget bad experiences than it is for us. So fill them with as many good experiences as possible.”

“Today is a good day, too. I say that every morning. It's so I don't get depressed and to encourage myself.”

“Autism isn't your fault. Each child has the ability to grow. Those words saved me from a dark place.”

“Just like this, the kids we raised slowly start growing up and away from us. We have to gradually let go of their hands for them to grow... but as parents we're reluctant... because the instant of letting go is just too harsh. Even though deep down, we know that we have to let go one day.”

“Encourage them to do what they can, and help them do what they cannot.”

“Laughter sometimes hurts us, and sometimes it makes us feel better. No matter how down you feel... laughter brings a new ray of hope. Laughter brings happiness to the home. A smiling face is the best reward you can see.”

“I'm always hoping that it will be his last tantrum.”
