Autism Awareness Month

April is autism awareness month and the Autism ribbon is the most recognized symbol. Autism prevalence is now one in 88 children in America.You can now have the Autism ribbon printed on a t-shirt to show support as well as being able to have your child or someone special added to the inside of the ribbon for a more personal touch. They are great for the proud parent, grandparent, aunts, uncles etc. You can visit our facebook page to see more. www.facebook.com/personalizeyouritems I know many people that have been affected by this disorder and though sometimes the child can have difficulty expressing themselves or communicating as others would they are very smart children that have a lot to offer.  

Myths about Autism
1. Myth: Autism is an emotional or mental health disorder
2. Myth: There is an autism epidemic.
3. Myth: Autism can be cured
4. Myth: Autism is the result of cold and unemotional parents.
5. Myth: Individuals with autism always have hidden or exceptional talents.
6. Myth: Repetitive or ritualistic behaviors should be stopped.
7. Myth: Individuals with autism are unable to build social relationships
8. Myth: Autistic individuals are a danger to society.

The thing to remember is that every child born needs love whether they were born with autism or not and these children may need a little more time and care  but is is so worth it to the parents and others  that love them.

  1. Autism is one of the largest things that are affecting our young people today. I am so glad that their are people out there who are working to help those who are affected by it. These beautiful shirts should help draw attention to the cause.
