The Autism-Whisperer |
Corbin heard me say this under my breath the other day and answered, "Yes Mom. He is in his own world. He likes to go there because he is King of that world. He likes being King and he doesn't have to figure everything out in that world. He already knows it all. Nothing is confusing there."
Corbin had said something along these lines before as I mentioned in a post in 2010 but at that time he wasn't able to elaborate on what he meant.
I get it now and I really like thinking of it that way. Honestly, it makes perfect sense to me when he put it into those terms. If I were Brian and the world was so overwhelming and confusing I would want to go where it was more calming too. I think Corbin is on to something....

Made me tear up for some reason! Love it!
Kids totally get it b/c they can see things how they truly are, without over thinking it and getting in their own way. True innocence.
Brotherly love and understanding is stronger than autism.
so true!
really true...i know it's hard for corbin to have a brother with autism but to get this level of understanding and acceptance...it is a gift in it's own way...
