One of my little guys with Autism (who does NOT play with other kids) brought me a basketball to play catch. We were having lots of fun when I noticed a little guy with Autism from another class wanting to join in (he also does NOT play with other kids).
I asked my little one if we could all play together. "NO!"
"Well let's try." I said and threw the ball to the other boy. "Now throw to him." I encouraged. Next thing I knew the two of them were playing catch together all by themselves and smiling like crazy!!
I almost cried.
When I told my guy's mom he played catch with another child she was floored and so excited!
Despite the insane-ness, I love my job.
