Yuki Kinda sorta... the most recent series I went completely geeky over was Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, so it's been a while. My husband and I were pretty stoked when the new season of Knights of Sidonia hit Netflix, though... and we've gone through The...

The LGBT+ community has been an ever-evolving one, with new ideas, terminology, and priorities as it continues to grow. Concepts of gender, sex, attraction, and expression are tossed around in academia, in activism, and in...

Oshy Hi Lecanis. I think that anyone should be able to pick whatever term suits them to identify with. It is the way of the world now there are so many to choose from. I dont think old or young should dictate what a person chooses.

My daughter is five and is very curious. When we go to the YMCA sometimes there are special needs children and adults there. I always try to veer her attention the opposite way so she doesn't say anything about them. I don't...

purplealabaster I normally pull her aside and talk to her quietly. I explain that some people look, talk and act differently, because that is the way they were made. I explain that they have feelings just like everybody else, so saying or doing something to them that would...

I would say that B&Q started this trend off as many of their stores have been "re-vamped." Yes, "re-vamped" meaning, "getting rid of some of our staff." Personally, I don't like the idea. For starters, there are...

Does anyone else around here have a nonverbal child? My autistic son is almost six, and he stopped speaking several years ago after a seizure. It makes a lot of everyday things difficult; it's hard to know what he wants and he...

leighz I'm sorry to hear about your son's condition. I have seen several health related programs on TV, what you can do according to some experts in the field is learn sign language with your son. For each emotion or behaviour you should have one particular sign that...

cynicalandoutspoken I work with autistic children and two of them are nonverbal. One is 14 and 1 is 5. I can tell you that it does get easier as he gets older but Im sure that is a small ray of hope right now. I've learned to watch their facial expressions. The way you and I...

p1kef1sh I have come and gone and come and gone. No longer do I spend hours here - I don't have the time as I work three days a week now. Most of the people that were here in the early days have moved on - some happily and others less so. I see most of them elsewhere...

SomeCowgirl I wouldn't be here if it wasn't. I've had some "hiatus" myself but all in all it helps with savings, so I come back, pop my head in and start chattering away for a month or two. We're still here, a lot of the members you may be used to are probably gone, or...
