About ronanjames
Mom writes the posts, and Ronan makes the art! We are a team! Ronan has dual diagnoses of ASD and Tourette's. We've become passionate about all things autism and Tourette's related.
He has been an artist since he was born, and he already makes a living doing it! Well, enough for a 9-year-old to have a nice allowance anyway ; )

This is so compelling that I have listed it on our heading for our Global Team “Etsy For Autism” blog page.
I hope this is OK with you. Part of this message has also been quoted above the video, because it is time for the rest of the world to understand that just because people seem different, they are not, once the door to understanding has been opened. It is my hope that others can see and thus, open their minds, even if it is just a start. Once the mind accepts this awareness there can be no going backwards, it will be exponential growth and understanding, for the only way to go back, will be through ignorance and the choice to disrespect another.

All is okay with me! And thank you for passing along the word! Hopefully, we can get rid of the labels and limitations – different, normal, typical, etc. -all people are unique individuals, and everyone should be given respect equally.
