Margot I'm glad it's just been your book and I'm sorry that happens. I'm working with a group of autistic people who were used, without their parents or guardians understanding. I'm so glad I've had a chance to read your book. Dr. Grandin recommended it. She's working with the people I've mentioned.

Ellen Notbohm I've been in situations like that too, and take a very strong stand that surprises some people, that we cannot "use" autistic people of any age that way. Including children. They should be asked for permission from the youngest age possible, and many people might be surprised how young that is. It's never too early to start modeling respect. Thanks so much for reading the book, for your input, and letting me know Dr Grandin's thoughts. It's an honor to have her endorsements on my books and an honor for me to endorse hers over the years.
