Autism has a wide range of aspects that vary from person to person. Since autism is a developmental disability, communication and social skills tend to be a challenge. Specific symptoms vary. Autism is not a linear spectrum from "mild" to "severe." It impacts many different areas in different ways. For example, maybe your friend is funny and great at cheering people up, and has serious difficulty with self-care and sensory processing. An autistic person can be strong in one area and weak in another. It is important to understand your loved one's symptoms. Once you understand where the challenges lie, you can target those areas. Find out what strengths your loved one has, and what challenges they face. All of these components are important when choosing treatment options and coping mechanisms. It is good to know the general signs, and what autistic people think about autism. (Autistic-run organizations and blogs are usually good sources.) Here are a few signs of autism: Motor skills may be delayed Difficulty understanding and interacting with others Difficulty grasping abstract uses of language (e.g. sarcasm, metaphors) Special interests that are unusual in terms of focus and passion Over- or under-sensitivity to various stimuli (sounds, sights, smells, etc.) Difficulty with self care Repetitive behavior, notably stimming One autistic person might want to focus on developing the self-care skills to live on their own, while another might want to make friends. Others might be perfectly fine with living in assisted living, or not making more friends. Recognize that your idea of the ideal lifestyle might differ from their idea, and it's most important that they are able to be happy. Autistic people are not embarrassing, broken, or deficientsimply different. Instead of saying "I'll finally be happy when my loved one _____," practice being happy now, and embarking on your journey together. Demonstrate unconditional love, so they can love themselves.

Article: It is best to place all of the required materials on your desk, table, or wherever you plan to work. Below is what you will need to make and fly your kite: 8.5" by 11" sheet of printing paper or construction paper Lightweight string Pencil Stapler Ruler Scissors Hole punch (optional) A nice breeze or light wind (6-15 mph) Place your paper in front of you in a vertical position with the long sides on the right and left. Fold your paper in half so that the fold (seam) is at the bottom. Use your pencil to make a dot at the very bottom of the folded paper, about 2" from the left edge of the fold. While you have your pencil in hand, make another dot at the very bottom of the folded paper, about 2" from the first dot for attaching the string later. The Bumblebee (Schaeffer) kite, first created by William Schaeffer in 1973, may be the easiest of all kites to create and was designed with a simple fold that sails in gentle winds. Fold the top left end of the paper down until it is touching the first dot. Do not crease this fold. Do the exact same thing on the opposite side so that both sides are identical. Secure the ends of the folded pieces with a staple (the staple should be placed where you made the first dot). Place tape over the second dot and make sure the piece of tape is long enough to cover both sides. Use your hole punch to make a hole over the dot. This hole is the attachment point for the string. If you do not have a hole punch, you can carefully use scissors to create the hole. The purpose of the tape is to reinforce the hole so that it does not tear later. Insert your kite string through the hole that you created and tie the string with a gentle, but tightly secured knot. If you are really feeling crafty, you can create a handle for your string with a wide stick or any tube shaped item. A handle makes it easy for you to reel in or extend your kite, and also prevents your kite from flying away. The string is also called the flying line.

Problem: Article: If you need to make a smaller or larger amount, then use one part water and two parts sugar. Be sure to stir the water often to help the sugar dissolve. Once the water begins to boil, quickly lower the heat and bring it to a simmer; this prevents the sugar from scorching and becoming caramelized. Set the pot down on a heat-resistant surface and leave it uncovered until the mixture reaches room temperature. Place a funnel over the bottle or jar opening, and slowly pour the liquid inside. Replace the cap or lid and tighten it. It will stay fresh for a few weeks to about a month.

Reduce the water to a simmer and wait for the sugar to dissolve. Remove the pot from the burner and let the water cool. Transfer the mixture to a bottle or jar. Store the sugar water in the refrigerator.
