No, My Non-Verbal Son Doesn’t “Miss” Me In The Traditional Sense

My quarantine means I will miss my boy’s birthday.

What do you want, bud? Why are you staring at me like that?

Nonverbal autism started with nevers before redefining milestones.

Just because someone has the ability to say words, doesn’t mean they should always be speaking.

It feels natural at this point to throw in an “I’m sorry to say”, but I’m not.

My daughter, as the child without special needs, shouldn’t feel she has take care of him like it was her job.

Everything I do now is so that one day, he can do it on his own.

We have a lot less of these interactions as time goes on, but they still happen.

I’ve never had a relationship as special as the unique ones I have with each of them.

I’m not letting him sludge his way through life. My boy looks good. I make sure of it.
