Walk a Mile in my Shoes
Have you ever thought to yourself as you struggled to understand your child on the Autism spectrum, If only I could get inside his or her head for 5 minutes…I would know so much!” Well here is a video clip of a simulation of what it is like to walk down the sidewalk with Autism Spectrum.

I believe that everyone would benefit greatly from this video experience as a parent, sibling, friend, etc, as it broadens the scope of understanding the World that is Autism.
