If you find "NTs Are Weird" thought provoking then you will probably also find Amanda's site similarly thought provoking, though in different ways.

I was just surprised to hear that because I didn't know and had posted earlier this month about how <a href="http://mindlikechild.blogspot.com/2009/04/april-is-child-abuse-prevention-month.html" rel="nofollow"> April is child abuse awareness month</a>. At the same time it was quite a coincidence. I have limited experience working with children that fall on the autistic spectrum, but kaleeo just posted about one child possibly with undiagnosed autism who made <a href="http://mindlikechild.blogspot.com/2009/04/no-success-too-small_20.html" rel="nofollow">tremendous progress</a> in her class room. You’re so right. I was just surprised to hear that because I didn’t know and had posted earlier this month about how April is child abuse awareness month.
