"Overcome challenges, and celebrate successes." Love it!
You are a wonderful speaker! I know you will inspire many who struggle with the issues of being in the autism spectrum. It is a very wide spectrum.
Mr Bergantz
Believe there are people who think they are from this planet but don’t have the courage, the eloquence and the intellect to stand in this stage and talk so articulate like you did. You are an inspiration. You are truly out of this planet!
An inspiring story! Sometimes I share the same feelings with you. Even though I am not autistic, I am also weak at socialising. Do not have many friends, always get the wrong message in communications, etc.
So brave to share your own experience with all of us. Keep up the effort! 💪
Thank you.
My daughter at 6 years old, bullies started telling my daughter "You're not human." and throw food in her face. Being otherwise very well liked and happy in school she avoided telling me until I was told by a friend that something was wrong.
I will show her your presentation.
Oh my. I'm sorry that your daughter has to go through that. Nobody shouldn't feel and treated that way. I hope she'll have happy memories from now on.❤

On the spectrum myself, this is a no.
Can you explain please?
@@rc-ki4uy i think hes trying to say hes not an alien.
That's why it's a spectrum ,not everyone is the same
@@BurdenErnie1 Would you care to elaborate on that? It could be helpful for some or many people.
@@musingfoodie1041 Spectrum: a band of colors, as seen in a rainbow, produced by separation of the components of light by their different degrees of refraction according to wavelength. Used to classify something, or suggest that it can be classified, in terms of its position on a scale between two extreme or opposite points.
no two autistic people are the same, even in siblings. No more than identical twins looking identical but sharing different thoughts, strengths and weaknesses.
ok but he's even funny trying to make jokes when explaining things. the jokes are very tism coded but they are hilarious nonetheless
Thank you for your speech it means a lot
