Autism Spotlight

Putting the Pieces TOGETHER

My name is Brianna Watts, and I'm a 13yr old autistic girl. I was diagnosed with Aspergers at 5. I have a few other disorders but they don't do much to me. I go to a private school for Autistic Teens, We have to levels, we have the lower functioning kids (about 200 students) and we have the higher functioning kids (about 25) on two different floors. I am with the higher functioning. It is sorta hard having autism because most don't know about it. They think we are all mentally challenged it sorta makes me sad. I don't care if I'm autistic or what you say is "normal." I'm perfect the way I am. If they find a cure I know I won't have myself cured. In my mind Autism (higher functioning form) is the evolution of humanity. I just hope others see it the way I do.
