Lynn Vigo
Lynn Vigo, Autism Mother, Licensed Social Worker
"There's a steep learning curve with autism and we learn as we go along so we build on our success and as well as our mistakes. Not to worry-I have faith that in the school of life, parents get graded on the curve. Keep trying, keep learning, keep asking for help (Lynn Vigo, Seattle Children's Hospital Autism Blog, Ten "Mistakes" This Parent of a Kid With Autism Has Made Over the Years, November 13, 2014)."

Lorna Wing (1928-2014)
Lorna Wing, Autism Mother, Psychologist
"Youngsters with Asperger's syndrome are speaking up for themselves. Many see it as a difference not a disability, but that is a good and bad thing. For those with classic autism - like my Susie - it certainly is a disability (Lorna Wing, Quoted in The Guardian, 5/24/2011)."
