I just wanted to spend a few minutes discussing the Autism Devotion project and highlighting some of the fantastic posts we've had so far;The aims of the project
To highlight concrete examples of situations where people with Autism, including Aspergers syndrome, have demonstrated emotion or empathy with particular focus on situations in which those emotions may not have been recognised.
It is hoped that parents, siblings, family, friends and co-workers of people on the autism spectrum will be able to use some of these examples to better understand the emotional communication that is taking place in their everyday lives.
