Kids on the Spectrum are kids. They want what other kids want. They want friends, they want people to like them. They want to fit in. They just don't always know how to go about doing just that. Sometimes they make bad choices because they just don't know any better. Sometimes people get frustrated with them and they don't understand why. We need to learn about their differences and we need to learn patience and compassion. They don't want to offend people, or wear out their friendship. They just want to be a kid, a kid like all other kids.
