Hello.. My name is Autism.
Perhaps you know me or know of me. I am
a condition, a "disorder" that affects many people. I
strike at will, when and where I want. I leave no marks on those I
strike. In fact, I pride myself on the ability to infiltrate a
child's life, while leaving him or her strikingly handsome. Many
people may not even know I am there. Some people blame the child for
what I cause him or her to do. I do as I please.
I am Autism. I strike boys and girls. I find my best victims to be boys around the age of 2, but any child will do. I affect one child and "infect" the entire family.
I am Autism. I strike rich and poor alike. The rich combat me with education and therapy. The poor shut their children away and cannot afford to fight me. I am able to win in the lives of poor children more than I am those of the wealthy, but I will try to take root anywhere.
I am Autism. I am an equal opportunity disorder. I strike all races. In fact, I strike everywhere on Earth. I know no geographical bounds. I do not discriminate based upon religion either. When I strike, there will be little time for any of that anyway. When they find me, they will question everything they believe in, so why would I strike only one group? I have affected followers of every religion on the planet.
I am Autism. I am strong and getting stronger every year, every month, every day, every minute and every second. I am concerned that money might be allotted to combat me but so far, I have little to fear. Some countries like the United States , would rather spend money on such ludicrous things as opposed to combating me.
I am Autism. When I come, I come to stay. I take the dreams and hopes of families and trample them with delight. I see the fear and confusion in the eyes of my victims and see the formation of wrinkles, the worries and pain on the face of their parents. I see the embarrassment their child causes because of me and the parent's unsuccessful attempt to hide their child, and me. I see tears the parents cry and feel and the tears of their child. I leave sorrow in my wake.
I am Autism. I take away and give nothing but bewilderment and loathing in return. I take speech and learning. I take socialization and understanding. I take away "common sense" and, if I am allowed to flourish, I take away all but their physical life. What I leave behind, is almost worse than death.
I am Autism. I fear nothing except courage. I fear those who take a stand against me and attempt to fight me and bring others into the fight as well. I fear those who try to make it safe and easier for my victims in the community, and their families. I fear those who push ahead. I fear the day I will be eradicated from the planet. Yet, I do not fear too much right now. There is no need.
