For the Fear of Weeds

by Jackie

Absolutely! I have a child on the autism spectrum. If we could take the sensory problems away, the rest would be easy. For all you non-believers, imagine this. A 2 year old paralyzed by a fear of weeds. If they touch your leg it literally caused you pain or at least a lot of discomfort. What about crying because the seam of a sock hurts your feet, or a noise causes you to shut down. Brushing your hair and teeth each day with dread of the sensation it brings. I could go on forever. Watch children next time you are in a crowded place, they are everywhere. They need our understanding and our help.
