Thanks Shelley. My husband and I watched it. It was very touching and gave us a glimpse into the possible future.That's amazing. Some of those kids seem almost typical, except a little sweeter than typical tweens. Not so scary when they show it like this, is it? I wish there were more videos like this floating around. Thanks Shelley.
I found this to be very inspiring and a glimpse of what our kids may be like in years to come:) Very sweet:)

Interesting link. I think my communicative and speech differences were more pronounced than a lot of those children, but am aware that a lot of editing probably went into it.Thanks for showing this. My ds is a mix between Desi and Zack. (He is always correcting people too.) My son like to rub his hair a lot when he gets nervous.Can someone tell me the ages of the kids features? I'm at work and can't watch right now.Thanks for posting this Shelley.
I think the youngest kid was 12.
That video was very touching. We NEED more teachers in this world like her, that really understand our kids and see them for who they are, not just as autistic children.Aww.
Soem of them look so hung up about autism but they all express themselves effectively!
Thanks for the link - the kids were great. If I knew that my ds was aboutI finally got a chance to watch this video. What a great teacher and a great bunch of kids. Thanks for sharing the link.
The teacher is amazing...I wish all kids could have a teacher like her.Thank you Shelley. Really enjoyed watching this
