From my presentation I thought it was a great idea to mention Temple Grandin. She is the one who inspired my mentor and I to be more understandable to those children with autism. From her advice and experience, people have more respect and more patience towards these kids. They now know which methods best work and which don't depending on the severity of the child. I think that is very important. Mostly on helping us figure out what treatments best work for those that need help with cognitive skills. If you watch the trailer from her movie, you can tell she was misunderstood. Her parents and others saw her as "dumb" and shoved her around a lot. But she grew to become independent and very intelligent since the beginning but nobody cared enough to notice. It is such an emotional and uplifting movie. I think we all need to learn to have patience and respect others as we would like to be respected.
