Blog Post #3

Due to our busy schedules with sports and school, my partner and I have not been able to interview anyone new, but have plans on who and when we will do it. This upcoming weekend we plan to interview the mother of a son who is highly autistic to see how it has been for her and him throughout their lives. Our time conflicting has definitely been a setback. So because of that we decided to interview Kelsie's brother again, but this time on a happier subject. We talked about his life now and school and how well he is doing, which is all good things to hear, knowing that things have gotten better for him since he was younger. 
Following the interview of the mother with the autistic child we plan on interviewing my mom and sister, due to the fact that my sister is lesbian. We also plan to interview anyone, willing, in the community that stands out, or is different from everyone else.+

    I think it's great that your interview subjects range from the hardships to the common day. It gives good insight into the lives of the affected person and their family. I would suggest, since you and your partner seem to have trouble with time, that you both can do interviews on your own in those busy cases and communicate with each other on the results. I just have one question, how do you think your sister's sexuality will (or will not) change her opinion on autism? - Savannah

    I think it's great that you were able to not only see his hardships, but allow him to talk about his everyday life and the things that he enjoys. I think it shows not only the negatives of how he is effected, but also the positives in his life. Your project is a great idea and is bringing a lot of awareness to this critical issue. The only question I have is how is your sister's sexuality impacting her views?

    Not many people think that autism is something serious and that since children of adults who are autistic, they think that they may have it much easier than the rest of us, but it is a lie, they have it way harder than us. It is unfair that they get bullied for being different when it was not their fault at all. The family and friends of children like this are sympathetic and know to ignore anyone who thinks differently of them and their positive attitude is what drives people like you to want to raise awareness on this subject matter. I do question how or what you think your sister's answer will differ from other people's interviews? Will she be more critical on the subject or will it be close to the same answer as others?
