Hello my name is Jeanett. I want to tell you about my best friend in the whole world and my son, Junior. Junior is one of the brightest, most sensitive and caring people I know, he inspires me every day with his ability to live life to the fullest and his love and compassion for me as a mother. Growing up with ASD has not been a setback for my son, instead he pushes through barriers, and he shows me that there is a hope for him to lead a life full of acceptance from others as well as achieving any goals he sets for himself. I am involved in his life day to day, and I am very much an advocate for the acceptance of everyone with ASD.
