I've just migrated my blog from Blogger to my personal web site (I set up WordPress Mu there and am slowly moving all of my blogs), so here are the posts' new URLs:<br /><br />http://jannalouise.thehoskincentre.com/blogs/asd/2009/06/17/ableism-is-bigotry-and-discrimination-at-its-worst/ - a post about the discrimination that individuals with disabilities face every day - from people who really ought to know better.<br /><br />http://jannalouise.thehoskincentre.com/blogs/asd/2007/10/16/what-you-can-do-to-really-help-your-autistic-child/ - a post about a booklet I wrote (since updated to a prettier design and available for free download from my web site - linked from my blog).<br /><br />http://jannalouise.thehoskincentre.com/blogs/asd/2006/02/07/ritalin-doesnt-cause-violence/ - a post about the side effects of medication and how different people react to both medication and anxiety (and the misinterpretation by some professionals).<br /><br />http://jannalouise.thehoskincentre.com/blogs/asd/2006/02/05/do-or-do-not-there-is-no-try/ - probably my best essay ever, about executive dysfunction and how it affects those of us with ADHD and autism (and some other invisible disabilities).<br /><br />You can link to all or some or none, as you see fit. :)Jannalouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16013268003390172957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35743239.post-7469548323199253992010-05-29T15:22:43.623-04:002010-05-29T15:22:43.623-04:00Hi Dave,

Most of my previous posts (to be pedantic :-P, to me a "blog" is a site where people write "posts" with info) about being disabled are locked due to other issues I can't make public for, erm, reasons.<br /><br />Of the public ones, I'd say that http://mizmoose.livejournal.com/200150.html is the one I like best, followed by http://mizmoose.livejournal.com/213732.html. And I don't know if you can/want to/should use either because they both refer to, and link to, other blog's posts.<br /><br />[Today's captcha word is: predishe.

It may have gone without comment, but not without notice. <br /><br />It was powerful. Fortunately, my child with Down syndrome (13) lets the world know he has a backbone - most of the time. You put your finger right on what was bugging me about that show - I just can't imagine him standing there and taking that carp - with almost a smile on his face.

I often send your posts to her.

Very powerful. I've found that I often don't respond to the most powerful things because they stand so well on their own that saying anything more feels redundant.

I am no...Hi Joe, Where do we send the blog entries? I am not sure so I will try both here and the email you list. Thye entry I would like to submit is called "Choose Your Life," and it is about a time in my life when I was struggling to come to terms with a disability that was robbing me of most of my life choices. Many people thought they knew what was good for me, but their answers wouldn't have worked for me. I resisted the pressure of others and did what I knew I needed to do live a full and meaningful life even despite my disability. Even though it was the more difficult path, it was by far the most valuable. This particular time I am remembering is my most proud moment.<br /><br />I relate this to the book When Nietzche Wept in the beginning, so I hope that is okay.<br /><br />It's at http://aspiefrommaine.blogspot.com/2010/05/chose-your-life.html<br /><br />Thanks!<br />KateKatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04931944728963114472noreply@blogger.com
