This daily correspondence between schools she attended and us gives you a glimpse of our daily life. Most parents of typical children do not communicate on daily basis with the teachers. This gives a reader an insight to how important daily communication is for a child with autism.

Kat has attended school since she was 3 years old. These are school notes that were result of correspondence with her parents and her teachers. We have made comments at a later date reflecting back on the impact of these events. Kats School Notes Index

PS Kat did something neat yesterday. I was holding her foot so she couldn't get away from me . She was trying to get out she said "Come here ", and that didn't work , then she said " Give me your hand ", as soon as I let go to give her my hand she ran away .

D.F.

Pretty tricky! I really think she's learning that language is power .
