Illuminati (13th Degree)

In the case of Brian whom I mentioned above; his mom, who went on to become friends with us, had to battle constantly with the school administration for the resources to which he was entitled. She demanded he be mainstreamed and they objected. In order to ensure he get his entitlements she had to quit a lucrative job and took a position in the school system in order to monitor the situation.
No easy answers. I understand the heartfelt empathy that films like these evoke in people; but Mr Vinyl has a point here. To people not familiar with the difficulties experienced by families and people with these conditions it gives the impression that there is the possibility of accomplishing those types of things for every one who has this condition. Most people have no clue what Autism even means; so it is a double-edged sword promoting stories of this nature.
