One mom shares a story that changed her life, and her autistic son's: ""We parents of the 'specials' know only too well the hurts our kids feel when they are left out of the social gatherings relative to childhood," Klein wrote on her blog. "Organized sports, play dates, sleep overs and yes- the dreaded birthday parties."
What transpired was getting a birthday invitation, along with a handwritten note that essentially said, "Carter sat beside Timothy at school and he always talks about him. I really hope he can come. We are renting a bounce castle that we can attach a small bounce slide at the bottom. We will also have water balloons and water guns. Maybe Timothy can come earlier in the day if it would too much with the whole class. Let me know so we can make it work."
