I love this video. I love Temple and all her guests. I was a SPED teacher, I'm on the Spectrum, 70 years old, had many female/male issues

I don't know if it's because I knew in my heart that my son would turn out to be high functioning, but I've continually thought about possible future careers. I would introduce subjects and activities that he'd show a glimmer of interest in. Most failed, but did impart bits of knowledge. Currently he's been in Civil Air Patrol, Air Force Auxillary for 2 years. Recently he won 3rd place in a 5 state region drone flying competition, without practice, and with purposly crashing to avoid the attention of winning. This is our current adventure, drone pilots license! He's only 14 and I hope he's found his niche!

These talks over emphasize genius. Not all people on the spectrum are like this. It's disappointing.
